Research Areas

The current research focusses on solving problems in pure and applied mathematics by using mathematical and numerical analysis. Other research interests include modelling physical phenomena described by differential equations and using analytical and/or numerical methods to obtain solutions to these real-world problems that arise in science, engineering, and medicine.
