Assistant Professor Rahul Narain

This group develops algorithms for numerical simulation of physical systems, primarily with applications to computer animation, computer-aided design, and biomechanics. They are interested in both soft body dynamics (with elastic and plastic deformation) and fluid dynamics. They usually develop our own numerical code in C++ using standard libraries like LAPACK, Boost, and Eigen, and use MSI to run run multiple instances of their code for numerical experiments and collecting validation results.
