Research
Topics

Explore my research topics

Data science in finance and technological products

Data-driven insights is crucial in fintech products. My work focuses on fintech products and security.

Applied statistics and machine learning in education

Statistical and ML methods can be used to tackle education- and formation-related topics.

ESG and CSR reporting

Modelling in disease transmission

Modelling and simulation is crucial in aiding policymakers perform data-driven decisions.

Applied statistics and machine learning in business and security studies

We use data science, statistical and ML methods to address case studies in security and business.

Molecular dynamics simulation and computational methods (collaboration)

The movement at small scale define dynamics and behaviour at large scales. MD simulations provide us ways to understand systems beyond experimental methods.

Physics of wave propagation (collaboration)

Wave travels in fluids and solids. We are interested on theoretical and numerical methods to study their wave propagation and its impact on material design.

Environmental Security management (collaboration)

Ensuring environmental security requires appropriate management research and systems

Physics of viscoelasticity

Particles in fluids can change the viscoelastic properties of a fluid and can even result in chaotic behaviour, dubbed viscoelastic turbulence.

Particles in fluids

Flow velocity profiles influence the dynamics of particles. Tumbling, bending, stretching are just among the few possible behavioral dynamics that can be observed.

CELLS IN COMPLEX FLUIDS

My current project involves modelling cells moving and growing in a complex fluid. There are various ways to model cells, but two important factors to consider are that cells are motile, and that they swim in a non-Newtonian medium. The ultimate goal is to describe cell movement and growth using a minimal model that captures the essential physics of the biological system.My current project involves modelling cells moving and growing in a complex fluid.

CHAOS AT LOW REYNOLDS NUMBER

I have studied how a minimal model of a polymer may bend in chaotic flows. First, I have shown that that a Brownian trumbbell (three-bead, two-rod) model can bend in an extensional flow (In fact it can perform a tumbling motion, even if such end-to-end reversal is only associated to shear flows). Using both analytical methods and numerical simulations, the bending dynamics of the polymer model is shown to be different in two and three dimensions. In particular, the trumbbell has two strong stable configurations in 2D but a clear preference for an extended configuration in 3D.

ELASTIC PARTICLES IN FLOWS

The COVID-19 disease is a major concern worldwide. Applied math modellers can help provide insight on its spread and suggest combinations of interventions to address this concern. When a vaccine is available, it is also important to know how to best distribute it given that its production will be limited at the start.
