    Description

    My research focuses on the development and application of numerical techniques to address questions in tectonics, sedimentation and basin evolution. I am interested in employing numerical models to question the dominant processes involved in regions of active faulting associated with sedimentation and determine which key parameters cause observed geometries in both two and three dimensions. The information gained is compared with observations from natural examples of fault growth, stratigraphic relationships and scaling laws. You're welcome to use any of the images/movies here if you like, but please quote the doi of the collection (or selected page) if you do. Thanks. These models are generated on the computational shared facility at The University of Manchester, an invaluable resource for this research over many years.
