softwares

Softwares

I contributed to the following code bases:

Mathematical and Numerical Softwares

LFAToolkit.jl, a julia package used in the analysis of multigrid, multilevel algorithms for solving PDEs via FEM or FDM. Code base can be found here.
libCEED, a fast algebra C library for element-based discretizations with bindings available in Fortran, Rust, Python, and Julia languages. Code base can be found here.
PETSc, Portable, Extensible Toolkit for Scientific Computation for scalable solution applications modelled by PDEs. Has bindings for C, Fortran, and Python. Code base can be found here. Additionally, added to PETSc this tutorial code - A Chebyshev spectral method for the compressible Blasius boundary layer equations.
