Developing advanced concepts for scientific computing
Providing comprehensive, cross-linked expertise for the development of scientific computing from conception through implementation and application
The Continuum Models and Numerical Methods (XCP-4) group focuses on developing advanced numerical methods for high-speed multimaterial flows and methods for turbulence and multicomponent reactive flows for national security applications.
Our research interests are diverse, and include:
- High-order numerical methods for compressible flow
- Scale bridging algorithms and adaptive refinement techniques
- Numerical methods for fluid-structure interaction problems and interfacial flows
- Physics models for multifluid/multiphase reactive flow
- Turbulence models (RANS, LES, hybrid RANS-LES)
- Models for detonation-to-deflagration transition and for detonation wave propagation in solid elasto-plastic porous medium
- Development, implementation, and validation of solid mechanics models
