The Oxford group and Warwick node are located in two internationally leading mathematics departments. The group focusses on the use of nonlinear analysis and numerical methods to illuminate problems of solid phase transformations, in particular those of martensitic nucleation and microstructure morphology, the passage from atomistic to continuum models, interfacial energy and micromagnetics.

Description of particular research topics for MULTIMAT

In the framework of the RTN project the focus will be on crystalline solids and their microstructure, on the theoretical interpretation of data resulting from experiments on specific materials, and on the development and use of mathematical tools for modelling and analyzing multi-scale problems in phase transformations.
