Scholar-generated biography
Anthony Peirce is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of British Columbia, specializing in mathematics, applied mathematics, physics, chemistry, and rock mechanics. His research focuses on the mathematical modeling and simulation of complex physical phenomena, particularly in the context of hydraulic fracturing. He develops numerical methods such as the implicit level set method and XFEM to model fracture propagation, incorporating factors like viscous effects, non-local elasticity, and stress barriers. His work also addresses quantum control systems, optimal control, and multiscale modeling in both engineering and physical sciences.
