Biography

Assistant Professor, Department of Mathematics

Dr. Mohamed K. Riahi earned his PhD in Applied Mathematics from Pierre et Marie Curie University, Paris, France. He has worked as a postdoc research associate in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at New Jersey Institute of Technology, USA, and in INRIA-Saclay Palaiseau France as a postdoc researcher, with DeFI Team.

Dr. Riahi is an expert in scientific computing and numerical analysis related to partial differential equations. His research includes and is not limited to: space- time-domain decomposition methods, finite element method, integral equations method, numerical optimization, iterative method, preconditioning technique, shape optimization, optimal control problem, high-performance computing, and parallel programming.

He applies his research on waves related problems (acoustics and electromagnetism), fluid-structure interaction, heat and mass transfer, and inverse problems.

Dr. Riahi is serving as referee for several peer-reviewed applied mathematical journals.
