==== May 2015: Two new papers published ==== {{ :start:shipmcl.jpg |}} I'm happy to announce the publication of two new papers. The [[http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2015.173|first paper]] is published in //Nonlinearity// and is on the topic of developing exponential asymptotics for problems with coalescing singularities (motivated by the study of ship waves, above left) with Jonathan Chapman (Oxford). The [[http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/0951-7715/28/5/1229/|second paper]], published in the //Journal of Fluid Mechanics//, and collaboration with Weiqing Ren (National University of Singapore) and Weinan E (Princeton) seeks to explain the importance of distinguished limits in the classical contact line problem. Both papers can be downloaded from the research section.
