This researcher works on the mathematical and computational modeling of two-phase flows, such as mixtures of gas and liquid (like bubbly flows, boiling, or stratified fluid layers), which are important in nuclear engineering and other systems involving fluid mixtures. Much of the work focuses on the 'two-fluid model,' a set of equations used to simulate how two fluids interact and mix, and on making these models mathematically well-behaved (well-posed) and physically accurate through better representation of forces like interfacial coupling and inertia. The work also explores instabilities, chaotic behavior, and verification methods for these fluid models.

Publication output has been low and irregular over the last decade, with only a handful of papers per year and some years with none, suggesting a slow and inconsistent publication pace rather than steady growth.
