Hendrik Ranocha is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the group of David I. Ketcheson at KAUST (King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, Saudi Arabia).
His research is focused on the analysis and development of numerical methods for partial and ordinary differential equations. In particular, he is interested in the stability of these schemes and mimetic & structure-preserving techniques, allowing the transfer of results from the continuous level to the discrete one.
