Mathematical Modelling

Modelling HIV transmission and the impact of innovations in preexposure prophylaxis against a background of structural and behavioural complexity

University of Bristol

About the Project This PhD investigates HIV transmission and the impact of oral and injectable PrEP using mathematical modelling, exploring adherence, risk perception and behavioural factors. Objectives Build understanding of factors influencing PrEP effectiveness. Explore behaviour-driven infectious disease models. Model the impact of PrEP in real-world settings and inform policy. Please see here for the full project overview.

Mathematical Modelling

Heat Transfer Enhancement in Helicoidal Heat Exchangers for Industrial Thermal Systems

Kingston University

About the Project The proposed project focuses on the investigation, design and optimization of helicoidal heat exchangers for enhanced thermal performance in industrial heat transfer applications, particularly in the oil and gas sector. Conventional shell-and-tube and tube-in-tube heat exchangers often suffer from limited heat transfer rates due to the formation of thermal boundary layers and insufficient fluid mixing.
