McKee developing surface tension package
Grad student Jack McKee is featured in UH News for his work on coding a package that models the interaction of heated droplets and unheated droplets.
The “Pacific Island Structured-Adaptive Mesh Refinement with Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian” (PISALE) software was supported by a three-year, $591,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Energy. Alice Koniges is the Principal Investigator.
