Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolChengshun Shang is a research engineer and PhD candidate based in Barcelona specializing in computational particle mechanics, discrete element method (DEM), and geotechnical applications. With four years of experience at CIMNE and a visiting scholar stint at UC Davis, he develops and extends open-source DEM tools—contributing parallel-bond, damage, smooth-joint models and polyhedral particle support to Kratos DEMApplication and creating DEMGen for standardized particle packing. Proficient in C, C++ and Python, he also pioneers ML-accelerated parameter calibration and multi-physics couplings (DEM-CFD, DEM-FEM) for realistic solid-fluid and solid-solid simulations. As organizer of Coffee Talks, he bridges research, code, and community—bringing practical engineering insight from mining and structural analysis into reproducible, extensible simulation software.
