Professor James Blowey serves as a Professor (Teaching) in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Durham University, with dual appointments reflecting his integrated role in research and pedagogy within the mathematical sciences division.
His research specializes in the numerical analysis of partial differential equations, particularly degenerate fourth-order problems with direct applications to phase transformation phenomena in alloys. This work employs advanced finite element methodologies to model complex material behaviors, bridging computational mathematics with materials science to address challenges in phase separation and order-disorder transitions.
Blowey's publication history demonstrates sustained focus on degenerate parabolic systems including Cahn-Hilliard equations and thin-film models, with recurring themes of error analysis for non-smooth free energy systems and mobility-dependent phase separation dynamics. His contributions span mathematical analysis, numerical approximation techniques, and practical computational frameworks for multi-component alloy systems.
