Modelling two-dimensional droplet rebound off deep fluid baths | Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences
For a droplet to rebound rather than coalesce with a liquid bath, a layer of gas must
persist throughout the impact. This gas, typically an air layer, acts as a lubricant
to the system and permits a p...

Furthermore, the speed of this new model permitted exploration into repeated bounces wihtout further loss of resolution - supporting long scale investigation into Faraday pilot wave dynamics, coming full circle from my initial thesis formulation report 5 years ago! 3/4

We introduce new analytical and computational modelling approaches for capturing the dynamics of a liquid drop and pool impact which include a fully coupled reduced dynamic model for the entraped gas region between droplet and bath, and compare to dedicated direct numerical simulation. 2/4

Oh yeah, photo context - the team at the stadium let me keep one of the rebranding panels, and it’s still up at Mams house! (I never got a programme from matchday though, so if anyone has one knocking about I would be forever grateful!) However if you want to see a vintage version from 2015... 🧵5/5

Ten years ago I was a confused kid in the middle of her A levels who’d just lost her father to cancer, and didn’t know what she was going to do with her life. Now I couldn’t be more proud of who I’ve become. I’m a mathematician, science communicator, and still an avid rugby fan.

It was pure chance - they randomly chose one fan who’d been supporting since the beginning to win the honour, so my name went everywhere (including the wiki page, much to someone's attempt to keep kicking me off there!!)

Ten years ago today, the ospreys celebrated their ten year anniversary by renaming the then liberty stadium the “Katie Phillips Stadium”. I still find it completely surreal that for a single match all the commentators were saying MY name, and all the branding everywhere in the stadium got replaced.

28. The PhD gave me a load of opportunities to travel, my favourite of which was getting to attend ICIAM in Tokyo 2023. It was a massive (thousands of people) conference from all over the world getting excited about maths. And I got to present my poster via robot! (Plus Japan was a dream location!)

27. Im really not a morning person, I think if life didn't work around a 9-5 assumption, my productive hours seem to be late evenings-early hours of the morning thesis write-up was a strange time)
