Research programme

One scientific programme, from collisions to materials

The work is organised by physical dependency rather than by PhD or postdoctoral stage. Fundamental scattering models feed transport simulations; geometry and uncertainty make those simulations credible; radiation-material studies turn them into design insight.

Research areas

Four complementary areas

The same computational methods recur across semiconductor metrology, radiation damage, scientific software, and data-driven analysis.

01

Monte Carlo Particle–Solid Simulation

Monte Carlo models of how electrons and ions travel, scatter, and deposit energy inside solids, with uncertainty quantified alongside the prediction.

  • Electron transport
  • Ion–solid interactions
  • Cross sections
  • Uncertainty quantification
02

Radiation Materials Science

Modelling collision cascades, primary damage, and defect evolution to understand how alloys survive irradiation in nuclear, fusion, and space environments.

  • Primary damage
  • Collision cascades
  • Defect evolution
  • FeNiAl superlattices
03

Scientific Software & HPC

Simulation, meshing, and coupling workflows in C++, Fortran, Python, and MPI for complex three-dimensional material geometries.

  • IM3D
  • MMonCa
  • CRT
  • Gmsh
04

Machine Learning for Simulation Data

Manifold learning, Gaussian-process kernels, denoising, and surrogate methods used to analyse scientific data and reduce simulation cost.

  • Manifold learning
  • Isomap
  • Gaussian-process kernels
  • Surrogate models

Methods that move across scientific domains

The enabling stack includes Monte Carlo simulation, C++ and Fortran physics libraries, Python analysis, MPI campaigns, Gmsh geometry, IM3D, CRT, and MMonCa.
