My research interest might be described best as Computational Physics. At the heart of Computational Physics lies numerical simulation. Most real-world physics problems cannot be solved analytically due to the inherent complexities of the system; fortunately, much can be learned through computer modeling and analysis. My research deals with constructing these models and simulating physical interactions in several areas. For more details on the projects, visit here.
