معرفی
David Bourne is an Associate Professor at Heriot-Watt University specializing in applied mathematics and computational modelling. His research focuses on optimal transport theory with applications in materials science, atmospheric dynamics, and geometric modelling.
Recent publications develop innovative methods for polycrystal microstructure modelling using Laguerre tessellations and optimal transport techniques. Applications extend to atmospheric state definitions and geophysical fluid dynamics through semi-discrete transport frameworks. Mathematical contributions include anisotropic material modelling and quantization methods.
He regularly presents at international conferences on mathematical materials science and optimal transport theory, with invited lectures at LMS Durham and Münster Applied Mathematics Symposium.
