I am a soft matter physicist at Durham University, where I lead the Computational Multiphase Physics (CoMPhy) Lab.
Our research focuses on non-Newtonian free-surface flows and soft matter singularities—fluid phenomena (like drops, bubbles, jets, and sheets) where interfaces undergo rapid, dramatic changes. Using high-fidelity simulations, theoretical modeling, and collaborative experiments, we investigate events such as:
- 💧 Droplet impacts and coalescence
- 🫧 Bubble bursting dynamics
- 🌊 Jet formation and breakup
- 📄 Liquid sheet fragmentation
We use complex (non-Newtonian) fluids as model systems to explore how microstructural stresses influence continuum-scale dynamics, connecting fundamental insights to real-world applications across industry and nature.

GitHub's contribution calendar counts events, not commits: public/default-branch commits, private or restricted activity, issues, pull requests, reviews, and repository creation. The custom total above counts globally deduplicated, primary-authored Git objects reachable from default branches visible to the action token at its last successful crawl; inaccessible repositories, topic-branch-only commits, unlinked authors, and rewritten history are excluded.
