Academic webpage Title: Oscillatory Reconnection Abstract: Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental plasma process at the heart of many dynamic events such as solar flares. These are clearly time-dependent events, and…
Academic webpage Title: Untangling waves and mean flows via PDE-based Lagrangian filtering Abstract: Oceanic flows are typically composed of wave and mean motions with a wide range of overlapping temporal…
Academic webpage Title: Postponed to a later date.
Academic webpage Title: What can flow down a pipe teach us about the geodynamo (and other nonlinear stability problems)? Abstract: The Geomagnetic field is generated in the rapidly rotating fluid…
Academic webpage Title: Multicellular Calculus Abstract:Â The disordered and granular nature of multicellular tissues endows them with exotic mechanical properties and presents challenges to continuum modelling frameworks. Â To address this, many…
Academic webpage Title: Turbulent damping of fast oscillations by a convective flow Abstract:Traditional mixing-length models describe tidal dissipation in convective flows as a large-scale oscillation damped by an effective turbulent viscosity that…
Academic webpage Title: Phase transitions from the viewpoint of an applied mathematician Abstract: Evaporation, supercooling, and related phenomena can be described using hydrodynamic, kinetic, or mixed models – which yield results…
Academic Webpage Title: Dissecting the Role of Phenotypic Variation in Cell Population Growth and Collective Self-Generated Chemotaxis Abstract: Phenotypic variation is a ubiquitous feature of biological cell populations, even in…
Academic Webpage Title: From Linear Regression to Gaussian Neural Networks: Diagnosing the Evolving SST–NAO Teleconnection Under Climate Change Using Explainable Machine Learning Abstract: The North Atlantic Oscillation — a large-scale…
Academic Webpage Title: Wave propagation in reaction-diffusion equations Abstract: I'll talk about a broad class of scalar nonlinear parabolic equations, extending the established concepts of pulled and pushed fronts (conventional…
