Interests:

• Computational multiscale mechanics for porous and particulate materials.
• Mechanics of single phase (dry) and multiphase (partially-saturated and saturated, multi-constituent) porous materials, such as geomaterials (soil, rock), concrete, and soft biological tissues.
• Damaged polycrystalline metals.
• Generalized continuum theories for multiscale modeling of inelastic deformation.
• Applications include modeling geotechnical, geological, and structural engineering failures, high strain rate loading of polycrystalline metals and soils, and visco-poroelastic response of ocular tissues and other biological tissues.
