معرفی
Dr. Yuan Liu is an Associate Professor of Applied Mathematics at Wichita State University, affiliated with the Fairmount College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Department of Mathematics, Statistics, and Physics. She holds a PhD in Applied and Computational Mathematics and Statistics from the University of Notre Dame (2012), and M.Sc. and B.Sc. degrees in Mathematics from the University of Science and Technology of China (2007 and 2004).
Her research focuses on designing and analyzing high-order numerical methods for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), including discontinuous Galerkin (DG), WENO, and spectral methods. Applications span computational biology (e.g., zebrafish dorsal-ventral patterning, tumor growth modeling) and computational engineering (e.g., fluid-structure interaction, phase-field modeling in additive manufacturing). Dr. Liu has held academic positions at Wichita State University (2019–present), Mississippi State University (2015–2019), and Michigan State University (2012–2015 as Visiting Assistant Professor).
Her publications reflect expertise in adaptive multiresolution methods, bound-preserving schemes, and mathematical modeling of biological systems. Recent work emphasizes numerical methods for dispersive waves, nonlinear Schrödinger equations, and tumor growth dynamics.
Dr. Liu’s research has been supported by grants focusing on computational mathematics and interdisciplinary applications. She actively contributes to teaching in applied mathematics and supervises graduate students in numerical analysis and computational biology.
