In the research community, Professor Wan is the Secretary of the Canadian Applied and Industrial Mathematics Society (CAIMS) since 2015. He has been organizers of local workshops as well as international conferences. He has also served as editors for journals and members of a number of program committees. Recently, he has been invited to serve on the editorial board of the new CAIMS journal, Mathematics in Science and Industry.
Professor
Wan's
research
is
in
the
area
of
scientific
computing
with
special
interests
in
developing
efficient
numerical
techniques
for
solving
partial
differential
equations
(PDEs)
arising
from
modeling.
The
applications
he
is
interested
in
are
computational
finance,
image
processing,
and
physically
and
biologically
based
simulation
for
computer
graphics
and
medicine.
Over
the
past
years,
he
has
been
developing
fast
numerical
algorithms,
in
particular,
multigrid
(MG)
preconditioning
methods,
for
solving
different
types
of
PDEs
arising
from
applications.
The
research
results
address
the
fundamental
issues
of
numerical
methods
and
models,
and
advance
the
computational
techniques
in
different
areas
of
scientific
computing.
