Mathematical Modeling Of Groundwater Flow
, 2016 The aim of this paper is to design the mathematical model of groundwater flow. Groundwater is not static, it flows in an aquifer and its flow can be described using partial differential equation and associated initial-boundary conditions. The work considered three dimensional steady state groundwater flows.

Plasmonic Enhancement of Fluorescence and Protein Dynamics in Living Mammalian Cells
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates plasmonic enhancement of the function of fluorescent voltage sensing proteins (genetically encoded voltage indicators, (GEVIs), QuasAr6) in live mammalian cells. Coupling to plasmonic nanoparticles does not just increase fluorescence, but influences the protein photocycle, creating a hybrid sensor with its response speed to ...

Fast iterative solvers for PDE-constrained optimization problems
, 2013 In this thesis, we develop preconditioned iterative methods for the solution of matrix systems arising from PDE-constrained optimization problems. In order to do this, we exploit saddle point theory, as this is the form of the matrix systems we wish to ...
