Benzhuo Lu PhD

Numerical methods and software development, for simulation of electrostatics (AFMPB solver, released) and diffusion-reaction processes (PNP solver ichannel) from molecular to cellular scales using (parallel) finite element and boundary element methods, fast multipole method and so on. Molecular surface and volume mesh generation (Meshing tools), the surface mesh generation program TMSmesh is released). Visual and analysis program VCMM (designed for visualization of biomolecule, mesh, and computational results, and also for interface to programs developed for continuum modeling)? Continuum models for ionic solution, solvation phenomena and biomolecular system interaction/dynamics.
