- Energy based arc length control for mechanical solver
- Fully coupled fluid flow within matrix and along fracture with mechanical deformation
- Multiscale fracture propagation by coupling nonlocal damage with PPR cohesive zone model

Assistant Professor of Petroleum Engineering
My research interests include novel rock breakage and fracture for subsurface resource recovery, data-driven and physics-based multiphysics modeling in porous and fractured media, and granular material flow characterization and modeling. My research provides solutions for energy/minerals recovery & storage, material handling, and GeoHazards prediction.
