#MESHFREE METHODS IN SOLID MECHANICS CODE#
Under a recent multi-PI NASA project, my group will combine i(mmer)sogeometric analysis and automated code generation to produce tools for multiphysics analysis of eVTOL aircraft, contributing to a broader framework for multidisciplinary design, analysis, and optimization (MDAO), using the OpenMDAO library to coordinate between disciplines.įigure: Comparison of artificial valve simulations with results from an in vitro experiment. As such, optimization within this space will require novel analysis tools that are highly flexible with respect to both geometry and physical modeling. Potential viable designs may have radically-different layouts and involve coupling between structural mechanics, aerodynamics, acoustics, electromagnetic fields in motors, battery chemistry, heat diffusion, and other physical phenomena. However, the design space of such aircraft is not thoroughly explored. There is a current surge of interest in electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, for use in urban air mobility.
Multidisciplinary design, analysis, and optimization of electric air taxis If you think you might be interested in participating in this research, check for openings under " Team and openings ", and/or contact me directly via email. I have worked on a number of different numerical methods and applications, as discussed below.

Eliminating the need for manual intervention by analysts will ultimately enable artificial intelligent agents to set up, execute, and learn from physics-based simulations, contributing to automation of broader tasks, such as engineering design, scientific inquiry, and technically-informed decision-making. This work aims to address the current bottleneck in computational mechanics, namely that analysts spend a substantial amount of their time on geometry manipulation, which drives up the cost of applying computer simulation to design, optimize, or predict behavior of physical systems. My research is interdisciplinary, with the unifying theme of exploring the use of flexible, automation-friendly representations of geometry in physics-based computer simulations.
