Research

Through the development of novel and efficient in-house computational methods based on a sound mathematical foundation, our research goal is to understand micromechanical originated multi-scale and multi-physics mechanisms in solid materials undergoing large deformations and fracture. Applications include sustainable energy storage materials, flexible electronics, and granular materials.

For that purpose, we implement our methods, constitutive models, and extended finite element formulations into the open source finite element frameworks MOOSE and deal.II.
