Research Description
The spectrum of my research includes highly accurate numerical solution of systems of ordinary and partial differential equations that arise naturally and are vital to both the sciences and engineering; the theoretical modeling of nonlinear elastic deformations important to the field of nonlinear solid mechanics; and the study and development of an eight dimensional Grassmann and Clifford algebra that utilizes hyper-complex numbers to extend the geometric concept of the Hamiltonian vector to higher dimensions.
