Key details

Dr Timothy Reis

Associate Professor/Academic Portfolio Lead for Mathematics


Dr Reis is the Academic Portfolio Lead for Mathematics at the University of 比比资源. He joined the university in 2016 after three years as a Lecturer in Applied Mathematics at Plymouth University.  Before this he held the position of Junior Research Fellow at the Oxford Centre for Collaborative Applied Mathematics, University of Oxford, and earlier still enjoyed postdoctoral research at UCL ("Instabilities in Polymer Processing") and the University of Oxford ("Multiphase Lattice Boltzmann Models").

He obtained his BSc in Mathematics and MSc with Distinction in the Mathematical Theory of Complex Fluids from the University of Wales Aberystwyth. He was awarded his PhD in 2007 from Cardiff University's School of Mathematics and his doctoral work on "The Lattice Boltzmann Equation for Complex Flows" won the Vernon Harrison Prize from the British Society of Rheology for the most distinguished thesis.

Dr Reis has taught various branches of mathematics to undergraduate and postgraduate students including Partial Differential Equations, Optimisation and Operational Research, Foundations of Mathematics, and Fluid Mechanics. His research concentrates on the lattice Boltzmann method and applied maths more generally.

Research / Scholarly interests

My main research activities involves the theory and application of the lattice Boltzmann method, but I am generally interested in fluid mechanics, numerical analysis, and applied mathematics more broadly.
