Research
My research, in the most general terms, is on the analysis of nonlinear partial differential equations and its applications in material science and engineering. More specifically, I am interested in the modelling of material response from a classical point of view as well as using the recently developed implicit constitutive theory. I am also interested in the theory of gradient flows, infinite-dimensional dynamical systems, and calculus of variations.
