Brunnels worked on the solidsgroup/alamo repository, delivering simulation parameter tuning for vortex shedding and Allen-Cahn models. By adjusting physical constants, boundary conditions, and grid resolutions, Brunnels refined the simulation setups to improve both accuracy and stability. The work focused on computational modeling and numerical simulation, leveraging C++ for implementation and configuration management to ensure reproducibility. This targeted tuning addressed stability issues in vortex shedding and phase-field simulations, resulting in more reliable outputs for downstream analysis and decision-making. The depth of the work demonstrated domain expertise in physics simulation and parameter optimization, contributing to more robust and maintainable simulation workflows.
