Mr. Swensen has a strong background in scientific programming and advanced application software development. He has experience with C/C++, FORTRAN, large-scale mixed-language implementations, object-oriented software engineering, C++ STL, structured adaptive mesh refinement techniques, development of scientific software using object-oriented programming techniques, computational fluid dynamics, GUI development on Unix platforms using Motif, GUI development on Windows NT, and numerous computing environments and hardware platforms. He is currently involved in the development of a parallel, structured adaptive mesh refinement flow solver code funded through a DoE Phase II SBIR. This AMR code is the precursor to the next generation of REI's advanced combustion simulation software. His involvement with this project includes responsibility for the development of the object-oriented software design, and to provide assistance with the development and implementation of the low-level FORTRAN numerics. He also manages and maintains the source code revision control system being used (CVS). In addition to his involvement in the development of the adaptive mesh code, he is currently managing the development of a preprocessor for REI's in-house advanced combustion simulation codes. This preprocessor will provide computational mesh generation capabilities and a host of tools which will facilitate the complex and error prone process of specifying and calculating model input parameters.
