Research Interests
My research involves the modeling of fluid flows from a dynamical systems point
of view. Specific areas of interest include:
- Modeling and model reduction for bifurcation analysis and control
- Numerical methods, both for fluids simulations, and analysis of
dynamical systems
- Applications of geometric methods in fluid mechanics
