This researcher works on engineering problems related to nuclear reactor materials and systems, including phonon (heat-carrying vibration) physics in crystals like graphite and graphene, radiation damage and corrosion in reactor materials, and the design of liquid-metal pumping systems for nuclear reactors. More recent work extends into anomaly detection for scientific instruments and machine-learning applications in medical imaging, showing a broadening from core nuclear materials physics into applied computational methods.
