Worked on fast solvers for a finite element framework, specifically in the area of multigrid preconditioners for high-order discretizations. Designed and executed a parallel solver in the MFEM package which extends efficient solution-capabilities for high-order problems on next-generation architectures. Technologies used: C++, MPI, Linux.
