Axel Målqvist




Assistant Professor
Division of Scientific Computing
Department of Information Technology

I am an assistant professor in scientific computing at Uppsala University. My area of research is numerical solution of partial differential equations. In particular I am interested in multiscale problems, where the solution varies over several different scales, and multiphysics problems where several physical processes are active at the same time. Typical applications include porous media flow and microelectromechanical systems. I develop efficient algorithms for solving these problems together with error estimates that can be used to drive adaptive tuning of critical method parameters in order to decrease the error. My research is funded by the Swedish Research Council and the Göran Gustafsson foundation.
