Robert Pinkston
Bobby's research is the application of tensor network methods to fluid dynamics. He is currently exploring the matrix product state ansatz and comparing its performance to classic methods (e.g., finite difference) for solving two dimensional compressible reacting and non-reacting flows. Bobby is a Ph.D. candidate in the Computational Modeling and Simulation (CMS) program at the University of Pittsburgh and is passionate about scientific computing. His favorite programming language is Julia. His background is nuclear (BS) and mechanical (MS) engineering and he works full time as an engineer at Westinghouse Electric Company. He is co-advised by Dr. Peyman Givi and Dr. Juan José Mendoza Arenas.
