My research focuses on developing high-performance parallel algorithms for solving challenging applied mechanics and engineering problems. The methods are scalable on modern heterogeneous architectures, which are used to solve large-scale engineering problems. Below is a summary of specific research topics that I have been conducting together with related publications and achievements. Full list of my publications is on Google Scholar page.- Han D.
