My research is focused on the application of dynamical systems theory to
complex phenomena and high-dimensional chaos.
I am working on
- periodic and connecting orbits embedded in (LES of) turbulence
- sub critical transitions to turbulence
- nonlinear dynamics in physiological systems and homeostasis
- bifurcation theory
- several other weakly interacting projects.
The SIAM annual meeting in Toronto.
The Fields Workshop on Hydrodynamics of Living Matter.
Other hats I wear are
- Graduate Program Director of the Modelling and Computational Science program,
- specialist Editor for Computer Physics Communications,
In the 2020-2021 academic year I am teaching
- Computational Science I,
- Calculus and
- Partial Differential Equations.
MSc & PhD openings
If you are interested in working on one of these projects please apply to our Modelling and Computational Science program, or email me.
I will have new openings starting January 2021.
News
- MITACS is funding the continuation of my joint project with Klick Health through the Accelerate program. Eric Ng (MCSC PhD student) and Mei-yu Chen (CS undergrad) have broken ground, while Jaycee Morgan Kaufman (currently at Waterloo) will join in September.
- Derick Smith (MCSC MSc) was awarded an OGS scholarship for 2020-2021. Congratulations!
- Andree Qi (currently at Waterloo) will join the lab in September to work on models of collective bacterial motion, co-supervised by Luciano Buono.
- Two summer projects are under way: Gabrielle Claus (physics student at Lawrence University, US) is studying simple invariant solutions in Kolmogorov flow and Rohit Singh (also physics undergrad, but at OnTechU) is studying bi-stable systems that generate "flickering noise".
