How do we model continuum systems?
My research focusses around the low-order modelling of multiphysics continuum systems. This includes analytics, asymptotics, numerics and direct numerical simulations.
In recent years I have taken a particular interest in systems involving:
- Droplet systems (including evaporation, fluid flow and particle transport)
- Free-surface systems (especially thick films and short-wave instabilities)
- Optimal control
