Computational techniques have changed the way people change the world. PROFILE
I am familiar with the finite element method (FEM) and Abaqus, the professional computer-aided engineering (CAE) and finite element analysis (FEA) software. I have extensive experience in solving computational solid mechanics, thermal and fluid dynamics (CFD), and fluid-solid interface (FSI) problems. Besides, I can read, modify and write programs with Python and MATLAB. I prefer to continue my research and start my career in this area. I look forward to using my growing skills and knowledge for solving engineering problems and make a broad impact on the society. EDUCATION
