Welcome to my academic webpage!

About me

I am a post-doc in numerical analysis at Estern institute of technology Ningbo. As an applied mathematician, I am mainly interested in design, test and analyze efficient numerical schemes for PDEs. My work mainly focus on structure-preserving schemes for nonlinear PDEs, including hyperbolic conservation laws, PDEs with stiff sourse, and nonlinear parabolic problems.

As a guy with diplôme d'ingénieur (engineer degree in French), I am also interested in 1) the implementation with C++, Python, Matlab and Julia(currently using). 2) Physics-related mathematical modeling.

I am currently speaking Chinese, English, French and Japanese (Duolingo level).
