Description

Next-generation methods for transport in poroelastic media with interfaces. Deformable porous structures are ubiquitous in the design of materials such as filters, sponges, and prosthetics. They often show complex mechano-chemical processes that occur across several spatio-temporal scales. To mathematically describe them requires coupled sets of nonlinear, multiphysical, and multiscale equations. This makes the design of accurate, efficient numerical methods challenging. The Fellowship aims to address the mathematical characteristics encountered in poromechanics equations and their discretisation methods, and to devise novel mathematical and computational techniques for extending the analysis to cases where large deformations and the presence of interfaces and coupling with other neighbouring elements are relevant..
