We study simulation techniques for fluid, structure, granular, and their interaction and develope computational mechanics methods sucsh as smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), finite element method (FEM), finite volume method (FVM), and discrete element method (DEM). Our research goal is to build bridges between industry and academia by utilizing computational analysis methodologies.
