Peter O'Donnell, Jr. Postdoctoral Fellowship in Computational Engineering and Sciences
Postdoctoral Fellow Computational Hydraulics Group
Christina joins the Oden Institute with a mixed background in Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science and Software Engineering, and Mathematics. While completing her Ph.D. at Rice University in energy and entropy stable discontinuous Galerkin methods on cut meshes for hyperbolic conservation laws, she developed and taught a graduate-level course in High Performance Computing using expertise gained interning at Google, BP's Center for High Performance Computing, and University of Florida's Center for Compressible Multiphase Turbulence. A previous NSF GRFP recipient in Computational Mathematics, Christina's research interests are in numerical methods for hyperbolic PDEs and the development of robust, efficient software libraries.
