Vena Pearl Bongolan, Ph.D.

San Roque Power Corporation Professorial Chair in Engineering/Computer Science

We are heavily into disaster modeling: cellular automata modeling of landslides via an ultra-discretization of KPZ and Burger's euation; using stochastic Navier-Stokes for modeling storm surge and the post-disaster regeneration of mangroves.
