Innovations in spherical approximation - construction, analysis and applications. The motivating problems for this project come from geophysics, including climate, weather forecasting, planetary gravitation and magnetism, and from coding theory and molecular chemistry. National benefit is expected to arise both from an improved ability to handle problems of key economic importance, and from an enhanced position in the international scientific world, through public presentation in leading journa ....Innovations in spherical approximation - construction, analysis and applications. The motivating problems for this project come from geophysics, including climate, weather forecasting, planetary gravitation and magnetism, and from coding theory and molecular chemistry. National benefit is expected to arise both from an improved ability to handle problems of key economic importance, and from an enhanced position in the international scientific world, through public presentation in leading journals and international conferences, and from direct collaboration with internationally leading scientists from USA, UK and Germany. The project will also increase the pool of trained mathematicians with expertise in areas important for applications.

Multiscale modelling of systems with complex microscale detail. This project aims to develop systematic mathematical and computational methods for the compact and accurate macroscale modelling of systems with microscopic irregular details. The methodology, justified with mathematical analysis and computation, uses small bursts of particle/agent simulations, partial differential equation (PDEs), or difference equations, to efficiently predict macroscale behaviour. This project’s mathematical meth ....Multiscale modelling of systems with complex microscale detail. This project aims to develop systematic mathematical and computational methods for the compact and accurate macroscale modelling of systems with microscopic irregular details. The methodology, justified with mathematical analysis and computation, uses small bursts of particle/agent simulations, partial differential equation (PDEs), or difference equations, to efficiently predict macroscale behaviour. This project’s mathematical methodology aims to efficiently and accurately extract and simulate the collective dynamics which emerge on macroscales, leading to improved prediction and understanding of the significant features of these complex systems at the scale relevant to engineers and scientists.Read moreRead less
