Current Students
Phillipe Alves, PhD Student
My research focuses on the development and application of multiscale methods for the simulation of 3-D fracture propagation in ceramic matrix composites (CMC).
Amit Dhankhar, MS Student
I am studying the computational performance and stability of generalized finite element methods for 3-D fractures.
Travis Fillmore, MS Student
I am interested in novel solution algorithms able to non-intrusively combine classical and generalized finite element softwares.
Piyush Gupta, PhD Student
My research focuses on the modeling and simulation of propagation, interaction and coalescence of 3-D hydraulic fractures.
Haoyang Li, PhD Student
Research Topics: Generalized finite element method with global-local enrichments (GFEMgl) and Generalized FEMs linking dimensionally reduced models (DRMs) and 3-D thermo-elasticity equations.
Nathan Shauer, PhD Student
I plan to work on multiscale Generalized Finite Element Methods and high performance parallel computing for large scale simulations.
Julia Plews, PhD Student
I work on multiscale methods for highly localized and time-dependent thermo-plastic response of heterogeneous materials exposed to extreme environments. I am implementing these methods in high-performance parallel computers.
