To shake or to stir: The Mathematics of Mixing

If you have a question about this talk, please contact .

Understanding the mixing of fluids of different properties is a fundamentally important challenge with applications from the making of the perfect cocktail to describing the transport of heat and pollutants in the atmosphere and oceans. The underlying mathematics has a beauty all its own, due not least to a subtle and non-intuitive interplay between a wide range of physical processes and the inherently nonlinear dynamics of fluid motion. In the talk, I both review some of the key successes in the mathematical description of mixing, and also introduce some fascinating open questions.
