RESEARCH

 

My research is focused on building mathematical models of physical phenomena

and developing efficient numerical methods for problems in science and engineering.

In particular, I have been developing numerical techniques, which allow fast integration

of large nonlinear systems of differential equations with widely varying temporal scales.

I have worked on modeling large scale behavior of astrophysical and laboratory plasmas

including evolution of coronal loops in the solar atmosphere and plasma configurations

arising in fusion related experiments. My research interests also include computational

biology, in particular, modeling experimental manipulations of biomolecular structure

of living cells.
