Professor Matteo Parsani’s research interests are related to the design and implementation of novel, robust, and scalable numerical methods on unstructured grids for hyperbolic and mixed hyperbolic/parabolic partial differential equations, as well as their application to solve realistic flow problems in various areas of natural science and engineering. To this end, he combines numerical analysis, physics, and high performance computing to develop robust spatial and temporal discretizations with better mathematical and numerical properties that account for the physical phenomena being modeled and the modern computing architectures. Application domains that are currently driving his research are computational aero and gas dynamics, dense gas flows simulations, and computational aeroacoustics.
