Jim is interested in a variety of problems, including the phase field modeling of solidification, polycrystalline solids, and the electrochemical interface.

Alex Mont

developed the PyxViewer and the Gmsh import and export modules while he was a student at Montgomery Blair High School.

Katie Travis

developed the automated --inline optimization code for Variable objects while she was a SURF student from Smith College.

Max Gibiansky

added support for the Trilinos solvers while he was a SURF student from Harvey Mudd College

Andrew Reeve

added support for anistropic diffusion coefficients while he was on sabbatical from the University of Maine.

Olivia Buzek

worked on adding Trilinos parallel computations while she was a SURF student from the University of Maryland

Daniel Stiles

worked on adding Trilinos parallel computations while he was a student at Montgomery Blair High School.

James O’Beirne

added full mesh partitioning using Gmsh. James also greatly improved the Gmsh-FiPy pipeline. Other contributions include updating FiPy to use properties pervasively, deployment of a Buildbot server to automate FiPy testing and a full refactor of the Mesh classes.
