My research focuses on the mathematical modelling and analysis of media in which motion is limited by density, contact or saturation. My work connects modelling, PDE analysis and numerical approximation.
Research interests
Density saturation
In granular media, concentrated suspensions and crowds, packing constraints limit the density of the medium. How can we describe the coexistence of free and congested regions? I study models that account for this constraint and the dynamics of the interfaces between these regions.
From microscopic contact to collective dynamics
In a suspension, lubrication, contact and collisions influence particle motion. How do these interactions translate to larger scales? I work on the development and mathematical justification of continuum
models from particle systems.
Transitions and front propagation
How do congested regions form and recede? I study these transitions and the propagation of the associated fronts, as well as numerical approximations designed to capture them.
Derivation of the one-dimensional Euler equations with a congestion constraint as the hydrodynamic limit of a particle system with inelastic collisions.
