EPSAM

In Applied Mathematics, the broad areas of research are fluid dynamics, solid dynamics, and wave theory, with particular emphasis on geophysical fluid dynamics, biomedicine, sound and vibration, and stability. Members of the Geophysical fluid dynamic group are involved in projects to predict tsunamis and other freak waves based on sediment from pre-historic tsunamis.
