short biography

My research research interests include computational thermodynamics, first-principles calculations, and phonon calculations to study thermodynamic, diffusion, and mechanical properties of ordered and disordered alloys, compounds, and functional materials. As of 2019, I published over 230 peer-reviewed papers with an H-index of 42.
