In April 2025, Chen Mal developed advanced automatic differentiation capabilities for finite element functions in the Gridap.jl repository. By integrating ForwardDiff with Julia, Chen enabled gradient-based workflows and sensitivity analyses on FE positions defined via FEFunctions, addressing both precision and performance. The work included refining point-to-cell caching to accelerate spatial queries during differentiation, and ensuring accurate extraction of ForwardDiff values for improved numerical precision. Chen also updated documentation in Markdown to clearly describe the new features, supporting developer onboarding and traceability. This contribution demonstrated depth in numerical methods, code refactoring, and performance optimization within scientific software engineering.
