Theoretical and computational soft matter — from self-propelled particles to the algorithms that connect microscopic dynamics with macroscopic flow.
From bacterial baths to artificial microswimmers, energy injected at the particle scale produces flows, defects and pattern formation at the macroscale.
Explore this areaCapillary spreading, charged interfaces, electrokinetics and the rheology of confined biological matter — soft media where geometry and dynamics are inseparable.
Explore this areaAlgorithms that bridge particle-level statistical physics and continuum hydrodynamics, together with the kinetic theory that justifies them.
Explore this area“A particle picture faithful to thermodynamics, a hydrodynamic picture that emerges from it, and the algorithms that reconcile the two.”
