Linxu Fan

I obtained my PhD in Informatics from the University of Edinburgh, where I was supervised by Prof. Taku Komura. I also hold an MSc in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Edinburgh.

My research focuses on physics-based simulation and computational modeling, with a specialization in simulating complex physical phenomena such as fracture mechanics, deformable bodies, differentiable simulation, and cloth dynamics. I am particularly passionate about bridging the gap between theoretical models and real-world applications by leveraging advanced numerical methods, including the Material Point Method (MPM) and the Finite Element Method (FEM).

My work aims to create highly realistic simulations that capture the intricate details of real-world physics, enabling better insights into material behavior. I am committed to pushing the boundaries of realism in simulations to solve challenging problems and contribute to innovative technologies.
