About
Krasny conducts research in scientific computing; this involves developing numerical algorithms and carrying out computer simulations to investigate systems of interest. Current work focuses on GPU-accelerated barycentric treecodes for long-range particle interactions with applications in electrostatics of solvated biomolecules, electronic structure described by Kohn-Sham density functional theory, plasma dynamics described by the Vlasov-Poisson equations, and fluid vortices described by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.
