About Me

I am a student in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University.


Name Pronunciation

My name is Zihui Liu, which pronounces as "Zi-Hui Leo". My last name is pretty easy to pronounce because it sounds the same as the constellation. The way others mis-pronounce it, "Zui". Remember, my first name contains two syllables but not one. I also can accept "Timothy" as an alternation for my original name.

Favorite Demonstration in MatLab

Spherical Surface Harmonic\\ Spherical Surface Harmonic is my favorite MatLab Demonstration, and the reason is twofold. First, Fourier series is very useful in mathematics and physics, so it would be a good way to be able to visualize these series. Second, this demonstration shows the ability for MatLab to model free oscillations of planets, especially the Earth.
