Dr. Adrian Lew's interests lie in the broad area of computational solid mechanics. He is concerned with the fundamental design and mathematical analysis of material models and numerical algorithms.
Currently, Dr. Lew's group is focused on the design of algorithms to simulate hydraulic fracturing. To this end, they work on algorithms for time-integration embedded or immersed boundary methods.
