The theme of my research focuses on understanding and optimizing renewable energy materials, and digitizing/modeling their scalable manufacturing processes. My interest revolves around exploring the fundamental transport physics and developing corresponding computational tools. The approach in my research is both physics-driven and data-driven. The following is an figurative overview of my research activities, which range from classical to quantum, from continuum to discrete, from deterministic to stochastic, from continuum scale to nanoscale, from solids to granular media and fluids, and from the present to the future.

In the past, I've been pushing my efforts deep into three mainstreams:
In the past, I've been pushing my efforts deep into three mainstreams:
1. Disorder, symmetry, dimensionality, and quantum effects on the transport of energy, charge, and ions
1. Disorder, symmetry, dimensionality, and quantum effects on the transport of energy, charge, and ions
It is of peculiar interest when things escape out of the box. I'm particularly interested in the electron and phonon transport when symmetry is broken, when order is destroyed, when dimension reduces below 3D, when scale shrinks to quantum size ...
1.1. Extending fundamental solid-state theories
1.2. Application to thermoelectrics
1.3. Application to photovoltaic materials
1.4. Application to organic matter (e.g., natural carbonaceous material)
2. Algorithm development & uncertainty assessment for physicochemical processes and manufacturing modeling
2. Algorithm development & uncertainty assessment for physicochemical processes and manufacturing modeling
In the past, we contribute to both the fundamentals and practicality of computational science, broadly for non-trivial transport phenomena, discovering and optimizing, in solids and fluids.
2.1. Development of computational schemes / packages for both fluids and solids
2.2 Machine learning and big data for materials discovery
2.3 Uncertainty quantification of various computational approaches, such as MD and DFT
3. Nonequilibrium and noncontinuum effects on particle transport in fluids and granular media, biomolecules and active matter
3. Nonequilibrium and noncontinuum effects on particle transport in fluids and granular media, biomolecules and active matter
Another demon out of the box is nonequilibirum, such as in rarefied ambient, or miniaturized microfluidics, or ultrafast processes.
The past experiences have prepared me for future challenges in the studies on fluids and solids, their intriguing behaviors, impacts on energy and environmental issues, population problems, and beyond. Please drop me a line if you resonated somewhere above, my email is zhutaishan@gmail.com.
