Siddhartha Mishra: ERC Consolidator Grant
Siddharta Mishra is one of five ETH Zurich researchers that receive a ERC Consolidator Grant from the European Research Council (ERC). Their projects are funded with around two million Swiss francs each.
Siddhartha Mishra undertakes research in the fields of applied mathematics, numerical analysis and computational science. For his second ERC project, after receiving the ERC Starting Grant, he wants to develop and analyse statistical solutions for nonlinear partial differential equations. His focus is specifically on equations that model fluid flow, as statistical solutions offer a promising description of complex phenomena such as unstable and turbulent flows. Mishra is currently combining mathematical theories and methods with efficient algorithms and massively parallel computing hardware. Potential applications include use in climate modelling.
