Dune migration • Physical prediction • Mechanical engineering

I am a graduate student in Mechanical Engineering at ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ÆÆ½â°æÏÂÔØ, with a passion for simulating sand-dune migration.

I am completing my thesis at the Granular Flow Lab at CU. In my research, I use a cellular automaton model, ReSCAL, to simulate dune migration. I examine the effects of factors such as flow velocity, dune size, and proximity of other dunes - on dune migration.
