Research Summary

Professor Unger is focused both on applied and research topics associated with numerical methods in multi-phase compositional flow in discretely fractured porous media systems. His interests extend to developing control volume finite-difference algorithms to simulate reactive phase-flow and advective-dispersive-transport within these systems, as well as numerical linear algebra strategies for object-orientated OpenMP domain-decomposition-based solutions of large sparse matrices derived from these classes of problems.
