Lecturer in Applied Mathematics,
Loughborough University
I am a Lecturer in Applied Mathematics at Loughborough University, since March 2015. Prior to this I was a postdoctoral research associate in the Complex Multiphase Systems group led by Professor Serafim Kalliadasis in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London. I completed my PhD under the supervision of Dr Jonathan Evans in the Mathematics department at the University of Bath, where I gained an MSc in Modern Applications of Mathematics. My BSc was in Mathematical Sciences was from the University of Nottingham.
My current research is described on the research tab. Predominately I am interested in the fluid dynamical description of the motion of contact lines - the location at which two immiscible fluids and a solid substrate meet, and of modelling a variety of complex fluid properties and problems such as interfacial flows and non-Newtonian effects. I employ a variety of analytical and numerical methods, focussing on matched asymptotics, to study these phenomena.
