معرفی
Dr. Ellen Luckins is a Warwick Zeeman Lecturer and Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the University of Warwick's Mathematics Institute. Her research focuses on fluid and continuum mechanics, particularly in industrial and environmental applications involving porous media, phase changes, and free-boundary problems. She employs homogenization techniques, asymptotic analysis, and multi-scale modeling to study evaporation, decontamination processes, and material science challenges. Recent work includes modeling impurity deposition during evaporation in porous materials and the dynamics of mushy zones in binary alloys.
Education includes a DPhil (PhD) from the University of Oxford's InFoMM CDT, with a thesis on silicon production processes in submerged arc furnaces. She has contributed to study groups on industrial mathematics, addressing problems like energy harvesting and chocolate processing. Her teaching includes advanced fluid mechanics courses at Warwick. Awards include the prestigious Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship, supporting her research in applied mathematics.
Her work bridges theoretical modeling with real-world applications, often collaborating with industry partners like Elkem. Key research themes include mathematical decontamination of porous materials, thermal-electrical interactions in metallurgical processes, and evaporation-driven flows in environmental systems.
