Angela Mihai

Loredana Angela Mihai FIMA FLSW is a British applied mathematician and numerical analyst. Originally from Romania, she is Professor of Applied Mathematics at Cardiff University [1] where her interdisciplinary work bridges mathematics with materials science and biomechanics.

Her contributions enhance our understanding of soft, smart, and biological materials through pioneering approaches like stochastic modelling of elasticity [2] that bring mathematical rigour to real-world materials with complex behaviours.

Education and career

Mihai earned her PhD in numerical analysis at Durham University in 2005.[3] After postdoctoral research at the University of Strathclyde, University of Cambridge, and University of Oxford, she joined the Cardiff University academic staff as a lecturer in 2011.[1]

Leadership and service

From 2023 to 2025, she served as Vice President of the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland Section of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.[4]

Recognition

Mihai is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications and a Fellow of the Learned Society of Wales.[5]
