Much of my recent work is on mathematical and numerical analysis of mathematical models that fit in a general form. Examples include the Timoshenko beam model, Koiter and Naghdi type arch models, Kirchhoff-Love and Reissner--Mindlin plate models, Koiter and Naghdi type shell models, Domain embedding for Dirichlet/Neumann problems based on penalty/regularization, and regularization of ill-posed boundary value problems defined on rough domains. Further information can be found in a summary of my recent work and my papers.
Before these, I studied domain decomposition and multigrid methods.
