Research Interests
In collaboration with Fredrick
Semazzi , he has developed and demonstrated conservative Semi-Lagrangian
methods which reduce the time-step constraints for simulation of advection-dominated
flows with applications to weather
modeling .
He has collaborated with Grace Kepler, Hien
Tran, and other CRSC researchers on high
pressure vapor transport resulting in mathematical models of the gasdynamics
for the growth of materials for optoelectronic and electronic devices.
In addition, he has worked on domain decomposition methods appropriate
for parallel processing.
