Hi! I'm Agus, a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Analysis and Scientific Computing, TU Wien in NumPDEs group of Prof. Dirk Praetorius. I completed my PhD in Applied Mathematics at UNSW Sydney, supervised by Prof. Thanh Tran (UNSW) and Prof. Ben Goldys (University of Sydney).
My PhD research studies well-posedness, long-time behaviour, and numerical approximations of various deterministic and stochastic PDEs arising in micromagnetics at elevated temperatures. My PhD thesis can be found here.
My research focuses on the mathematical and numerical analysis of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) and stochastic PDEs (SPDEs) arising in physics/biology. In particular, I develop and analyse structure-preserving and physics-consistent finite element methods, with emphasis on provable stability, convergence, and error estimates, while respecting the geometric and energetic properties of the underlying models. I am also interested in questions of well-posedness and long-time behaviour.
Much of my work concerns deterministic and stochastic micromagnetics, including Landau–Lifshitz-type equations, finite-temperature magnetisation dynamics, and coupled spin-transport models. My other research interests include geometrically constrained (S)PDEs as well as nonlinear problems arising in phase-field models, magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), and chemotaxis in biological systems.
