Research interests

My current DPhil research is in collaboration with the US Army Corps of Engineers, and HR Wallingford. The aim of my project is to develop a more efficient wave absorption technique for use in Proteus, a Python-based computational methods and simulation toolkit.

My past research has included modelling chemical intercalation within electrodes in batteries at a microscopic scale, and developing analytical solution methods for differential equations in order to study their behaviour.

In general, my research interests include:

  • Linear and Non-Linear Wave Theory
     
  • Mathematical Modelling Techniques
    • Asymptotic Analysis
    • Fluid Mechanics
    • Applications in Medicine, Biology, Chemistry, and Technology
