معرفی
Dr. Josh Shelton is a Lecturer in Fluid Dynamics at the University of St Andrews, affiliated with the School of Mathematics and Statistics. His research focuses on asymptotic analysis, fluid dynamics, and numerical methods, with applications to heat transfer, wave phenomena, and geophysical flows.
His work explores complex systems such as capillary waves, Rossby waves, and ice-crystal icing physics, employing advanced mathematical techniques like exponential asymptotics and singular perturbation theory. Collaborations with researchers like Prof. Trinh and Dr. Peters have yielded impactful contributions to computational fluid dynamics and boundary layer modeling.
Recent publications (2022–2025) emphasize the interplay between theoretical analysis and numerical simulations, addressing topics such as enthalpy-based models for phase change, viscous dissipation effects in surface waves, and trapped equatorial Rossby waves. These studies highlight advancements in understanding nonlinear phenomena and free-surface dynamics.
No scientific awards are listed, but his active research program includes collaborations with international teams and contributions to peer-reviewed journals like Journal of Fluid Mechanics and SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics.
Dr. Shelton advises no listed students but collaborates extensively on grant-funded projects involving asymptotic methods and fluid mechanics applications.
