Research Interests

My research has been focused in two areas: (1) the study of complex energy landscapes and noise-driven barrier-crossing events (rare events); and (2) the development and analysis of multi-scale, multi-physics methods and their applications to fluids. Click the links below for brief introductions and publications.

• Rare events and the string methods
• Multiscale modeling and computations, the moving contact line problem
