Over five months, Li contributed to the gismo/gismo repository by developing and refining cross-solver coupling between solid mechanics and OpenFOAM, implementing robust PreCICE-based workflows and validation harnesses. Li enhanced JSON-driven configuration, introducing schema validation and flexible multi-patch data ingestion using C++ and CMake, while improving error handling and memory management. Through targeted refactoring, Li stabilized boundary quadrature integration and streamlined code by removing dependencies, improving test reliability and maintainability. Li’s work demonstrated depth in computational mechanics, numerical methods, and object-oriented design, resulting in more reliable simulations, safer configuration workflows, and a cleaner, more maintainable codebase for future development.
June 2025 monthly summary for gismo/gismo focusing on JSON-driven data ingestion improvements, multi-patch support, and enhanced configuration. Delivered flexible loading for multi-patch data with multiple basis types, expanded documentation/examples, and robust boundary handling to improve usability and reliability of JSON-based workflows.

April 2025 for gismo/gismo focused on robustness, JSON handling, and configuration validation. Delivered a memory-management fix in gsJSON, enhanced JSON handling (exposed raw JSON object and improved gsMatrix deserialization), and introduced a lightweight JSON configuration validator to improve correctness and safety of deployments. These changes improve reliability, reduce resource leaks, and provide stronger validation for configuration workflows.

March 2025 monthly summary for gismo/gismo, focusing on boundary quadrature handling and bug fixes. Delivered a refactor of boundary element processing in gsQuadrature.h to correctly identify and collect quadrature points for both upper (parameter=1) and lower (parameter=0) boundaries using a two-pass approach: first counting relevant boundary elements, then mapping quadrature rules to those elements. This improves the accuracy of boundary condition integration across simulations. Major bugs fixed include robust identification and collection of quadrature points for boundary conditions, reducing risk of incorrect boundary integrations. Note from the commit indicates ongoing issues with the north boundary that will guide next work. Technologies/skills demonstrated include C++ refactoring, boundary element processing, and numerical-methods robustness for simulation reliability.

November 2024: Delivered a robust PreCICE-based coupling between solid mechanics (Gismo/thin shells) and OpenFOAM in gismo/gismo, supported by a testing harness, improved data handling, boundary condition refinements, and coordinate management. Initiated and progressed a 2D dam-break benchmark to validate the cross-solver workflow. Executed the integration through multiple testing stages (local tests and OpenFOAM submissions) to ensure stability across environments, setting the stage for broader validation and production use.
