  Current research focus
Presently working with Mr. Travis W. Drayna and Prof. G.V. Candler on the
development of a parallel, implicit solver for the simulation of hypersonic
flows using unstructured discretizations. The solver is based on the finite
volume method, which has been implemented on unstructured meshes, and uses
the implicit Full-Matrix Data-Parallel point relaxation (FMDP) and the
Data-Parallel Line Relaxation (DPLR) methods. The solver is intended to
maintain the robustness and efficiency of the DPLR method of solution
that is typically employed on structured discretizations, but to do so
on particular unstructured discretization.
