Personal profile
Personal Statement
I am an applied mathematician with an interest in fluid dynamics, especially applied to the earth sciences. I have particular interests in non-Newtonian fluids, in flow in porous media, and in sediment transport in environmental flows. I am also interested in the inclusion of ethics and history in mathematics education, and in the school-university interface.
I am currently the Postgraduate Research Director for the department. If you have any questions about PGR matters that aren't answered on our postgraduate research page then please feel free to contact me.
In the academic year 2024-25 I am the lecturer in charge of MM146 (Mathematics in Society), MM305 (Mechanics of Rigid Bodies and Fluids), and MM554 (Applied Mathematics Methods 1). I also lecture on and lead the SMSTC module "Asymptotic and Analytical Methods".
