I am currently an Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of North Dakota. My research focuses on the kinetic theory and its application in aerospace and mechanical engineering problems. I primarily use computational methods in my research, particularly particle based simulation method, including the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method and the particle-in-cell (PIC) method. I employ these methods in diverse applications including rarefied gas dynamics, hypersonic flow, aerothermodynamics, microscale and nanoscale flows, and plasma physics. I use high performance computing in my research. Additionally, I am also interested and experienced in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods solving the continumm fluid dynamics equations.
