Teaching Responsibilities 2022/23:

Term 1: MA933 Stochastic Modelling and Random Processes


Research Interests:

My research interests are in applied analysis, with a focus on modelling and control of problems described by partial differential equations (PDEs) and with relevance to applications in the physical, life, and social sciences. The problems I work on usually involve an interplay between modelling, applied analysis and numerical simulations of PDEs and (systems of) ODEs or SDEs, often in multi-scale scenarios. Current projects include

  • Control of interfacial flows using hierarchies of models
  • Modelling and control for pedestrian dynamics (See a Warwick press release from when I participated in the STEM for Britain competition.)

I combine techniques such as control, stabilisation, and optimisation (including Bayesian inverse problems) in the context of each of the projects above. For more information on my research, visit my research page.

Here are links to my Google Scholar, ResearchGate, arXiv, and ORCID profiles.
