Research interests

My research interests are applied mathematics, i.e.,

• homogenization of partial differential equations,
• multiscale modeling,
• the Boltzmann transport equation, and
• related numerical problems

as well as applications of the mathematical results in bio- and nanotechnology:

• mathematical modeling and simulation of nanowire biosensors and
• mathematical modeling and simulation of nanowire gas sensors.

These sensors are being developed by leading experimentalists and have many exciting applications.

Positions for grad students (Diplomarbeiten) and PhD students (Dissertationen)

… are available and can be funded by one of my research projects at the University of Vienna.

These positions are currently (January 2012) open:

• Open position for a PhD student in applied mathematics,
• Bezahlte Diplomarbeit in Angewandter Mathematik.

If you are interested, please write to Clemens.Heitzinger (at) univie.
