معرفی
Dr. Fiona Tomkinson is a Visiting Assistant Professor in the School of Mathematics and Physics at the University of Lincoln. She holds a PhD and MMath, and is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA). Her academic work spans research, teaching, and science communication, with a focus on applied mathematics and mathematical physics.
Her research interests lie at the intersection of fluid mechanics, stochastic calculus, and Hamiltonian chaos. She develops and applies advanced mathematical theories to model complex physical systems, particularly in fluid dynamics and biomechanics. Her work has been published in leading journals such as the Journal of Fluid Mechanics, Journal of Mathematical Physics, and ASME Journal of Biomechanical Engineering. She also contributes to interdisciplinary areas including theoretical biology and numerical integration.
The available publications show a strong emphasis on real-world applications of mathematics, from modeling raindrop dynamics to analyzing systemic failures in research integrity. Her work combines analytical theory with numerical methods, often drawing from chaos theory and stochastic processes to understand nonlinear behavior in physical systems.
