"If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants."
- Sir Isaac Newton
Welcome to our research lab!
Our lab focuses on computational sciences, addressing hypersonics, boundary-layer transition, propulsion design, turbulence, multiphase flows, the development of numerical methods, and the development of libraries for solving Partial Differential Equations (PDEs).
The discovery of new Partial Differential Equations (PDEs).
Our lab is part of ViSTA Labs and continues to collaborate with the Control Systems and Robotics Laboratories at TAMUK.
