About
Dr Callum Cuttle is a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford, affiliated with the Poromechanics Laboratory. He works under Prof. Chris MacMinn, focusing on flows in deformable porous media since 2020. His current EPSRC-funded PoPFS project investigates soil models through microfluidic experiments and continuum modeling.
- Key Research Areas: Gas compression-driven displacement, pattern forming multi-phase flows, fluid-structure interactions, soft porous media, and ocular science/glaucoma treatment
His work integrates experimental methods (e.g., microfluidics) with reduced-order mathematical modeling and numerical simulations. Recent projects include the DEFTPORE initiative examining fundamental behaviors in soft porous media. Collaborations span interdisciplinary teams within Oxford's engineering and applied mathematics communities.
Publications emphasize viscous fingering dynamics, soft porous media mechanics, and biomedical applications like glaucoma microstents. His research bridges theoretical fluid mechanics with practical engineering solutions in environmental and medical contexts.
