Research

My research interests broadly lie in the areas of scientific computation, differential equations, and mathematical physics. More specific topics include numerical methods for fluid-structure interactions, parallel implementation and preconditioning for large-scale simulations, modelling of biological locomotion, shape optimisation, adjoint-based optimal control, geometric integrators, exactly energy-conserving methods, Gaussian process regression and neural networks for data-driven optimisation, fluids on manifolds.
