Santiago Badia
Professor of Computational Mathematics
Monash University
I am Professor of Computational Mathematics at Monash University (Melbourne, Australia). Previously, I served as a Professor at UPC (Barcelona, 2009–2019) and as a researcher at Sandia National Labs (Albuquerque, 2007–2008) and Politecnico di Milano (2006).
My research is about the design and analysis of numerical discretisations of partial differential equations. I have designed and analysed finite element methods (in a broad sense) for singularly perturbed regimes, indefinite systems, multiphysics, and multiscale problems. I have also contributed to stabilized and unfitted finite element methods, large-scale parallel domain decomposition and multigrid solvers, and coupling techniques. More recently, I have been exploring the power of neural networks for the approximation of forward and inverse problems governed by PDEs. Overall, I have authored over 100 publications in these areas.
I have led several open-source scientific software projects, including the most recent Gridap project.
