Our research is concerned with the computational modeling and the experimental investigation of fluids in complex environments, including chemical reactions, phase transition, and heterogeneous flow environment. We addressing fundamental scientific questions, problems pertaining to energy-conversion and propulsion, as well as environmental issues related to wildfire predictions, carbon-capture and sequestration, and water desalination. We are developing advanced numerical algorithms, detailed physical models, and physics-informed and data-driven methods. Experimentally, our research employs X-ray absorption and scattering techniques  that involve X-ray Computed Tomography at laboratory and synchrotron sources, X-ray spectroscopy, and ultrafast X-ray techniques at the Linac Coherent Light Source to observe processes at sub-picosecond timescales.
