Welcome to my webpage! My name is Stavros and I am a fifth year PhD student at the University of Maryland, studying under the supervision of Prof. Jacob Bedrossian.
Research:
My research focuses on deterministic and stochastic evolution equations that arise in continuum mechanics, in particular in the study of fluids and plasmas. I am interested in understanding the behavior of various models at large times, often in limiting cases (such as vanishing viscosity or infinite mean free path). Some keywords:
- Fluid Dynamics: stochastic fluids, turbulence, (ir)regularity of weak solutions, inviscid limits
- Kinetic theory: collisionless kinetic theory, weakly collisional limits, magnetized plasmas, stochastic kinetic theory
