Liu Pei

Liu Pei is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Systems Engineering at Florida Institute of Technology's College of Engineering and Science. Based in Crawford Building (101 or 314), he can be contacted via pliu@fit.edu or (321) 674-3030. His research focuses on developing mathematical frameworks for complex physical and biological systems.

Research interests span:

• Mathematical modeling of fluid dynamics, electrophysiology, and transport phenomena
• Computational methods for partial differential equations and integral equations
• Statistical mechanical theories including density functional approaches for complex fluids
• Electrokinetic phenomena and nonequilibrium thermodynamic systems

Publication analysis reveals consistent emphasis on:

• Electrohydrodynamic systems and modified Poisson-Nernst-Planck frameworks
• Variational principles applied to reaction-diffusion and transport processes
• Advanced numerical solvers for electrostatic problems in complex geometries
• Biophysical applications including DNA organization and viral capsid structures

Dr. Liu actively recruits graduate students and advises undergraduate capstone projects in mathematical modeling and computational methods, though specific student names aren't listed. No awards or grants are mentioned in available materials.
