Systems Modelling


IMIA Zhu and Cooper

 

The systems modeling program develops mathematical models for complicated physical or logistical systems. Examples include the fluid-dynamics of wave-energy generators, and large-scale infrastructure modeling problems. The program includes interdisciplinary research into the construction of efficient wave-power generators.

Key IMIA members in this program include

  • Prof Tim Marchant
  • Prof Song-Ping Zhu
  • Dr Grant Cox
  • Dr Mark Nelson
  • Dr Annette Worthy
