Autobiographical Summary:
My research interests are in computational mechanics, focusing on the modeling and finite element analysis of multiphysics and multiscale mechanical systems. In particular, I strive to develop novel geometry-through-analysis tools that enable the seamless transfer of complex geometric models from computer-aided design and biomedical imaging into simulation results. Specific applications driving my work include the computational design of aerodynamic structures (for example, turbine blades) and the integration of computer simulations in clinical practice, with the goal of enabling new patient-specific treatments (for example, for bone osteoporosis).
My work has been distinguished with a number of high-level research awards, in particular the IACM John Argyris Award, the GAMM Richard-von-Mises Prize, the ICE Zienkiewicz Medal, the NSF CAREER Award, and the EMI Leonardo da Vinci Award.
