Research interests:
I am a fourth year graduate students working under the supervision of Prof. Manga.
My interests range from Geophysical fluid dynamics (especially related to magmatic processes), non-equilibrium thermodynamics like fluctuations related to phase transitions and pattern formation through reaction-diffusion processes. My work involves both theoretical and numerical calculations.

Numerical simulation of 3D porous medium flow in a synthetic texture (calculated from Avrami's model): Project of melt extraction from the mantle with Joe Dufek

Numerical simulation of 3D buoyant bubbles coalescencing in a shear flow: Project of volcano conduit dynamics with Joe Dufek and Andrea Parmigiani
