I'm a professor at the University of Bergen. My research is focused on mathematical modelling of physical systems, and in particular on the study of wave problems in fluids.

​

Together with students and colleagues, we are trying to understand phenomena such as wave breaking, particle drift and waves propagating through the ice-covered ocean.

​

Practical applications include the design of wave energy devices, prospects of tidal energy, carbon storage, and safety of ice roads.

​

Together with Mark Groves, I am editor for a new journal "Water Waves". We are looking to publish inter-disciplinary results on any aspect of water waves. If you are interested in a potential submission, please e-mail me or click here.
