Thank you for attending the 2nd European Fluid Dynamics Conference.

This was hosted in University College Dublin, Ireland, during the dates 26-29 August 2025. 

It ran under the aegis of EUROMECH, the European Mechanics Society.

I am an applied mathematician with a PhD in Physics. The bulk of my work is theoretical and numerical, but I always look for experimental applications of my results.
​
My research interests can be put in 2 categories:
- Turbulence, extreme events and finite-time singularities in fluids and general nonlinear systems.
- Nonlinear energy-transfer mechanisms in wave systems such as precession resonance and dynamical systems approach.
​
I have applied my work successfully to many real-life systems, including:
- Free-surface water waves driven by gravity.
- Drift waves in plasmas and planetary Rossby waves in the atmosphere and oceans.
- Ideal inviscid fluids, classical fluids and magneto-hydrodynamics.
- Quantum superfluids.
​
More recently I have collaborated in Industrial Mathematics and Mathematical Biology, in the context of European Study Groups with Industry.
