Constrained DHD: Dimer, Tetrahedron, and Chain
Collision: granular shot
- Computational fluid-particle dynamics (CFPD) in the Lagrangian picture
- Particle dynamics: Dissipative Hydrodynamics (DHD)
- Fluid dynamics: OpenFOAM (vs. smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH))
- CFD-DHD Coupling through the Lagrangian approach
- Coupled and complex transport phenomena
- Theoretical coupling of irreversible thermodynamics and fluid mechanics
- Granular particle dynamics in natural and engineered systems
- Thermally and osmotically renewable desalination using membranes
- Applied Mathematics and High-Performance Computing
