My research focuses on computational mechanics and numerical modeling of coastal, ocean, and riverine hazards, including tsunamis, storm surges, shallow-water flows, and river morphodynamics. I develop and apply finite element, discontinuous Galerkin, and hybrid FCM–FEM models for large-scale and multiscale simulations. Recent projects include global tsunami modeling with ADCIRC, coastal hazard assessment, morphodynamic analysis of river systems, and fluid–structure interaction simulations involving free-surface and multiphase flows.
