Research Experience
- Collaborator (chercheur visiteur) at Paris-Saclay University, ENS, France, at LMPS - Laboratoire de Mecanique Paris-Saclay; Member of the Cluster of Excellence PhoenixD; French-German Doctoral College Sophisticated Numerical and Testing Approaches; International Research Training Group IRTG 2657 Computational Mechanics Techniques in High Dimensions (CoMeTeNd); South America Competence Center of Scientific Computing; formerly Peruvian Competence Center of Scientific Computing.
Background
- University Professor for Scientific Computing and the Managing Director of the Institute of Applied Mathematics (IfAM) at Leibniz Universität Hannover (LUH) in Germany. Research interests include design, implementation, and analysis of numerical algorithms and space-time methods for nonstationary, nonlinear, coupled PDE systems and variational inequalities, particularly in computational fluid dynamics, solid mechanics, fluid-structure interaction, thermoporoelasticity, and crack propagation problems in elasticity and poroelasticity.
Miscellany
- Specifically interested in nonlinear solvers, a posteriori error estimation, adaptive methods such as local mesh adaptivity with a particular emphasis on goal-oriented techniques using adjoints, and parallel high performance computing. These concepts are furthermore employed in numerical optimization for optimal control, optimal design, and parameter estimation.
