Research Intrest

The use of rheology, non-Newtonian fluid mechanics, and polymer and particle physics to solve problems of interest in materials processing. We use whatever tools are most appropriate for the problem at hand, often in collaboration with colleagues who have specific expertise: continuum theory and simulation, molecular and particle-scale simulation, rheological measurement, and various spectroscopies.
