Department of Mathematical Sciences
Professor Tristan Pryer
Research interests:
Tristan’s research centres around questions in numerical analysis and PDE theory. The applications are focused in two main areas, each with industrial links. 1) Natural disasters and their prediction – working with the natural disaster monitoring centre in Brazil, CEMADEN. For example on landslide prediction, integrating techniques to solve inverse problems, engineering, particulate flow and numerical methods for PDEs. 2) Proton therapy treatment planning – in collaboration with clinicians in the NHS, proton transport through tissue is modelled with the ultimate goal of construction of in vivo proton treatment verification. This involves Monte-Carlo techniques, inverse problems, proton physics and numerical methods for PDEs.
