CURRENT RESEARCH INTERESTS
Our interests span several
areas of research ranging from combustion of complex systems that has
an overlap with chemical engineering, to solvation phenomena with a
particular focus in biological problems, to zeolite catalysis that has
a component in material science and finally to solid-liquid and
solid-gas interfacial properties that are important to environmental
chemistry. Development of a Grid enabled cyber-infrastructure for
research, collaboration, and education in computational science and
engineering.
- Combustion: To model kinetics, thermodynamics and
mechanisms
of
combustion of hydrocarbon fuels, and of coal gasification.
- Condensed-phase Biological Systems: To develope methodology for
simulations biological systems in solutions. Particular interest is to
predict thermochemistry of solvation, namely free energy, enthalpy and
entropy of solvation, and reaction rates in solution.
- Computational
Science and Engineering Online(CSEO):
To develop of a Grid enabled cyber-infrastructure
for
research, collaboration, and education in computational
science and
engineering. Facilitates multi-disciplinary research on multi-scale
complex problems and promotes collaboration across disciplines. It
promises to revolutionize the way we do research in scientific
computing. CSEO can be accessed at http://cseo.net
