Postdoctoral Fellow
Chase J. Shyu specializes in geodynamics, thermochronology, and tectonics. He focuses on developing and applying numerical models to study sedimentary basin interactions and crustal rifting processes. Key contributions include enhancing DynEarthSol (DES) with functions for sediment accumulation, node-element processing, and depth-dependent sedimentation, as well as implementing GPU parallelization using OpenACC. Work in 2024 involves simulating crustal rifting and extracting heat flow values for hydrocarbon maturity estimation in collaboration with Taiwan CPC Corporation and National Taiwan University. Currently, the integration of magma migration into DES is being conducted to investigate the magma-related rifting processes.
