Numerical models of explosive volcanic eruption processes.

Grant Award

Principal Investigator:
Professor HM Mader, University of Bristol, Earth Sciences
Science Area:
Earth
Overall Classification:
Earth
ENRIs:
Environmental Risks and Hazards
Science Topics:
Volcanic Processes
Geohazards
Abstract:
I propose to spend 1 year based in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Bristol to:1) Learn a range of advanced computational techniques including object-oriented programming, parallel-computing techniques and develop phenomenological and lattice-Boltzmann models for multiphase flows.2) Actively involve a number of applied mathematicians in the study of volcanic processes who have not hitherto worked in this area and forge new collaborative links.3) Create a computationally well-structured foundation which will facilitate the ongoing development of these models by successive researchers within my group.4) Improve my capacity as an advisor of graduate students to provide a cutting-edge education in numerical modelling and so improve their ultimate employability.
