Research Interests
General:
Formulation and analysis of problems in applied mechanics, solid and
structural mechanics, computational fluid mechanics, computational heat
transfer, computational solid mechanics, and applied mathematics.
Specialization in the theory and applications of the finite element method,
composite materials and structures, plate and shell theories, and energy and variational
principles and methods.
Current Research Activities: Analysis of laminated composite plates and shells with
actuators/sensors; health-monitoring of composite structures with damage; thermo-mechanical analysis of functionally graded materials; multiscale analysis of carbon nanotube-reinforced composite materials; numerical simulation of blown polymeric films; numerical modeling of surface damage in polymers; and development of robust and efficient computational technology for the solution of critical problems of mechanics (e.g., least-squares based computational algorithms for the analysis of fluid flows and plate and shell structures).
