Professor at Brunel University, director of BICOM, the Brunel Institute of Computational Mathematics. He sits on the Parliamentary & Scientific Committee to examine how mathematics can be applied to solve global issues. Research areas: Numerical methods for partial differential equations, particularly in the context of solid mechanics. Finite element methods for problems of linear elasticity, elastoplasticity and viscoelasticity; gradient recovery and superconvergence. Treatment of fracture problems, particularly viscoelastic fracture. Industrial applications of continuum mechanics problems.
