Profile Summary

My research interests are in: computational aero-elasticity, aero-elasticity, nonlinear dynamics, computational nonlinear dynamics, numerical analysis, computational mathematics, airfoil design, and so on. My M.S thesis was on reduced order modeling of bending torsion coupling in cantilever beam vibration and my Ph.D. dissertation was on wind turbine blade dynamics modeling. During graduate school, I spent nine months working in high lift wing design group of Boeing product development division. After graduate school I spent a year and nine months working as a loads engineer in Siemens Wind Power R&D. During my time at Siemens, I performed blade design and computational aero-elasticity tool development for wind turbine simulations. Currently, I am a postdoctoral scholar at University of California, San Diego in the Structural Engineering department. I am developing methods in level set topology optimization and am funded by the Air Force research lab to perform delta wing optimization subject to flutter constraints.
