Expertise

My research interests lie in nonlinear partial differential equations, applied analysis, and numerical analysis, with applications in physical, biological and materials sciences. Specific areas include:

  • Network formation in amphiphilic mixtures with applications to lipid bilayer evolution and morphology in polymer electrolyte materials 
  • Domain coarsening and self similarity in materials science, phase transitions and thin films 
  • ​Free boundary problem

 


Subject areas: Applied & Computational Math.

Current Projects: nonlinear PDEs, applied analysis, numerical analysis
