Dr. C. N. Richardson
EPSRC Research Software Engineering Fellow
Chris Richardson works on computer modelling and simulation, and is a core developer of FEniCS (www.fenicsproject.org), a finite element package.
Previous projects have covered a range of interests in the institute. Chris has developed and run high performance codes on Darwin (www.hpc.cam.ac.uk),
ARCHER (www.archer.ac.uk), and international HPC machines.
