I am currently working on DEM (Discontinuous Enrichment Methods) with application to acoustic problems in heterogeneous media. In particular my research is focused on Evanescent Waves problem. In the past I worked on numerical approximation of non-Newtonian fluids with applications to computational Geoscience.
