معرفی
Dr. Nicholas Kevlahan is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at McMaster University. He holds a BSc in Physics from the University of British Columbia (1985–1989), a PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of Cambridge (1990–1994), and completed a Marie Curie postdoctoral fellowship at École Normale Supérieure in Paris (1998). He has held visiting positions at institutions including Université Grenoble-Alpes, INRIA, and the University of Cambridge.
His research focuses on advanced computational and mathematical methods for fluid dynamics, including the development of the WAVETRISK code for adaptive climate modelling, data assimilation techniques, fluid-structure interaction, and compressive sampling. His work integrates interdisciplinary approaches across applied mathematics, geophysics, and engineering.
Key research areas include geophysical fluid dynamics, numerical analysis, partial differential equations, and wavelet-based methods. He has published extensively on topics such as ocean circulation models, turbulence simulation, and adaptive numerical methods.
Dr. Kevlahan teaches courses in numerical methods, differential equations, asymptotic analysis, and mathematical physics. He mentors a diverse group of PhD, MSc, and BSc students in his active research laboratory.
