Research Interests
Professor Petzolds research group concentrates on computational
science and engineering, and in particular simulation, sensitivity
analysis, design optimization, optimal control and problem solving
environments for systems described by differential-algebraic equations
and partial differential equations. Current projects focus on several
important engineering applications:
- development of a computational infrastructure for microfluidic
systems with applications to biotechnology
- development and analysis of multiscale simulation methods for
biochemical networks
The computational issues addressed range from development and analysis
of numerical methods for problems at scales from stochastic to deterministic,
to analysis of errors due to the use of reduced order models, to
the design of software environments to make scientific computation
more easily accessible. more easily accessible.
