Andrew Hazel

Andrew Hazel is a Professor of Applied Mathematics and Head of Department at The University of Manchester, Department of Mathematics. His research focuses on mechanical models of complex physical, biological, and chemical systems, with an emphasis on computational methods for analyzing and solving coupled differential equations. He is co-architect of oomph-lib, a software package for multi-physics problems. Hazel's work spans continuum mechanics, fluid and solid mechanics, and their interactions, with applications in physiology and industry. He has been Head of Department since 2021 and has held positions at The University of Cambridge and The Ohio State University.

Andrew Hazel is a professor in the School of Mathematics at The University of Manchester, UK, specializing in Scientific Computing, Nonlinear Phenomena, and Applied Mathematics. His research focuses on fluid-structure interaction, particularly in physiological flows, and the numerical methods for solving complex fluid dynamics problems. He has published extensively on topics such as hemodynamics, vascular mechanics, and bifurcation analysis. His work also includes the development of computational tools like oomph-lib, an object-oriented multi-physics finite-element library. Hazel's research explores the interplay between fluid dynamics and biological systems, with applications in understanding vascular diseases and airway mechanics.
