research interests
Oilfield process engineering. Mathematical modelling with applications in the mechanics of fluids, solids, multiphase materials and interfaces.
- Multiphase flows: slug flow, stratified flow, annular flow.
- Multiphase technology: separations, visualisation, densitometry, tomography.
- Flow assurance, sand transport, hydrates, waxes, heavy crudes, asphaltenes, thermal issues
- Rheology and microstructure of complex liquids: suspensions, emulsions and gels.
- Slip and wall effects in the flow of complex materials.
- Surface tension, free surface dynamics, waves and interfacial mechanics.
PhD, post doc and internship positions
I no longer work actively at Imperial, and do not supervise PhD students, Post-Docs or summer internships. Please contact one of my colleagues if you are interested in such a position. Most are advertised on www.jobs.ac.uk
