I work on the mathematical modelling of various situations involving fluid mechanics and solid mechanics, coupled occasionally with bits of electrochemistry. Currently, two focus areas of my work are investigating fluid flow through deformable confinements and investigating issues of diffusion, growth and stress in silicon anode particles of lithium-ion batteries.
