About Negin Razavilar

Chemical Engineering Faculty with research interests and core expertise in multiscale modeling - including molecular modeling, mathematical modeling, and computational material science. Specialized in molecular dynamics simulations (GPU-based), high-performance computing (HPC), event-based simulations, Monte Carlo simulations, Markov decision processes, numerical and mathematical modeling. My primary research interest is the application of computational tools to problems in chemical engineering, chemistry, and material science. Have taught chemical engineering courses including engineering thermodynamics, process analysis, mass transfer, chemical engineering thermodynamics, and a variety of chemical engineering laboratory courses for more than 6 years.
