研究概要

My research interests lie in understanding complex systems. I have been working on problems related to polymer physics and soft matter by means of theoretic tools, computational techniques, and numerical methods. My research goals are to advance the state-of-the-art theory and simulation tools in the field and to provide insightful guidance and innovative strategies for functional applications in smart materials, biomedical engineering, and energy storage. My current research focuses on studying mechanical properties of polymer networks through theory and molecular dynamics simulations.
