Inaugural Lecture: Professor Steve Fitzgerald, School of Mathematics

About this lecture
In his inaugural lecture, “Linearity, isotropy, equilibrium: Simplifying assumptions that don’t always apply”, Professor Fitzgerald will discuss some simplifications that are commonly used when devising mathematical models for the world around us and, using examples from materials science, illustrate some important cases where they fail.
