Research Summary
Dr. Park's research concentrates on the synergy between computational methods and materials physics,
and the advances in the understanding of material behavior that can be possible as a result.
Currently, he is interested in the modeling and metallic and semiconducting nanowires, with a specific emphasis
on understanding how surface effects impact their physical properties. He is also interested in developing new
computational techniques to understand the coupling between mechanics and other physical properties (optical, electrical, thermal)
in surface-dominated nanomaterials.
