Uncertainty on spheres and shells: mathematics and methods for applications. This project aims to develop new mathematics and mathematically rigorous approximation methods for physical problems on spherical geometries in the presence of uncertainty. Many physical phenomena are modelled on either a sphere or a spherical shell.

This project aims to develop new mathematics and mathematically rigorous approximation methods for physical problems on spherical geometries in the presence of uncertainty. Many physical phenomena are modelled on either a sphere or a spherical shell. Such models typically have large uncertainty in the input data, through uncertainty in model coefficients, forcing terms, geometry or boundary conditions. Yet their stochastic modelling and subsequent numerical analysis in the presence of uncertainty are still in their infancy. This project will conduct numerical analysis, stochastic analysis and approximation to address such problems.Read moreRead less
