ANGUS

 Angus is a common project–team between the Inria Branch at the University of Montpellier and the University of Montpellier and all its members belongs to Imag, the Mathematics research unit of University of Montpellier.

The Angus team focuses on various mathematical problems related to continuum mechanics. The problems we address are based on strong interactions with colleagues from other sciences and our industrial partners. The main topics concern complex fluids, in particular:

• multifluid and multiphase flows (interfaces, bubbles, droplets, fluid-solid interaction, etc.),
• phase transition in compressible materials,
• multiscale modelling (homogenisation, asymptotic analysis),
• non-equilibrium dissipative phenomena,
• shock waves and non-classical discontinuities.

We study the various problems using a comprehensive approach, from mathematical modelling to scientific computing. This allows us to revisit a number of numerical models and methods, particularly those used in industry, with a rigorous and well-argued approach.
