Welcome!
Our research focuses on developing constitutive and computational solid mechanics models and experiments to describe material behavior and solve critical engineering and biomedical science problems. The group is contributing to the following (often interconnected) research areas:
(1) Coupled multi-physics material models
(2) Material damage and failure
(3) Material response under extreme environments
(4) Mechanobiology: Cell and tissue damage and injury
(5) Biomaterials for improved cancer therapies
(6) Integration of mechanics with physics-informed AI
Key Research Themes
Damage and Failure Mechanics
Materials Under Extreme Environment
Mechanobiology
Integration of Mechanics with Machine Learning
