Personal profile
Personal Statement
My pedagogical research interests include understanding how students engage with online quizzes and how groups of students from different disciplines work together.
My mathematical research interests lie in using applied mathematics to solve real-world problems. Rather than studying detailed models of a particular system, I consider simple, but physically founded, models with the aim elucidating the fundamental mechanisms that control phenomena such as the evolution of porous media as a result of reactive natural convection processes, and the behaviour of both isotropic and anisotropic fluids (liquid crystals) under the influence of an electric field.
Research Interests
Problems I have worked on include:
- Reative convection in an evolving porous layer
- High Rayleigh number convection in a porous medium
- Deformation of nearly hemipsherical and thin drops of isotropic fluid under the influence of an electric field
