Tae-Yeon is a former Ph.D. student of the DCML. His research in the lab concerned the development of continuous-discontinuous Galerkin methods for flow problems. He is currently employed by Samsung in Seoul, Korea.
Ilinca is a former Ph.D. student and postdoctoral fellow of the DCML. Her research interests cover a broad range of topics in computational mechanics, including bifurcation theory and structural dynamics. Ilinca is currently an assistant professor of civil engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
Hashem worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Duke University from 2004 to 2006. Prior to that, he received a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Michigan. His research at Duke focused on the development of an assumed-gradient algorithm for the level-set equation and the development of a bubble-stabilized finite element method for embedded interfaces. Hashem currently works as a postdoctoral fellow at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
Bin Yang received his Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Duke University in 2006, working under the guidance of Professor Tod Laursen. His research activities focused on the development of mortar-finite element algorithms for frictional contact. In particular, Bin extended some early work in this area to three dimensions and developed novel search algorithms for treating self-contact. Bin currently works as a computational scientist for ESI Group.
Meredith received her BS in Mechanical Engineering from Duke University in 2005, and stayed on to pursue a MS from Duke. She completed her Master's Thesis in the summer of 2006, studying the failure characteristics of stimulus-responsive hydrogels. Meredith currently works as an engineering consultant for ECS Limited.
Huidi received a Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Duke University in 2004, working under the guidance of Professor Dolbow. While at Duke University, Huidi authored five peer-reviewed journal articles in computational mechanics. She currently works as a software developer for ABAQUS.
