Biography

Dr. Allen C. Robinson is a distinguished member of the technical staff at Sandia National Laboratories. Since starting work at Sandia in 1983 his interests have included shaped charge modeling and subsonic jet flow, Rayleigh-Taylor instability in solids and parallel computing for shock physics modeling. He has made major contributions to the development of algorithms associated with ALEGRA, an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian multi-physics simulation code, in particular relative to electromechanical and magnetohydrodynamic modeling. Current interests include the characterization and propagation of uncertainty in multi-scale predictive modeling, structure preserving discretizations and next generation multiphysics modeling algorithms and software implementations.
