Research Interest
My recent interest is in a transport phenomenon in relation to a spontaneous breaking of symmetry, such as an active matter. In particular, I study photophoresis and laser-induced Marangoni motion of droplet theoretically and with computational fluid dynamics of thermofluid. Morphology and dynamics of DNA and polyelectrolyte chains in the presence of counter-ions is also one of my continuing theme.
