W R MatsonDr W R Matson has been an Assistant Professor at the University of Minnesota, DePaul University, and Central Michigan University since receiving his doctoral degree in Condensed Matter from Oklahoma State University in 2004. He completed his post-docoral fellowship at Emory University in the area of destructive rheology and shock physics, during which he developed integrated experimental technology including time-dependent second-order dynamic feedback controls for a remotely governed three-dimensional experimental apparatus. His current research interest is complex flow dynamics in the vicinity of rigid boundaries and obstructive objects. His ultimate research goal is a fundamental theory of viscosity, the physics governing energy distributions and transmission inside any media. The consequences of this research could revolutionize the fields of oceanography, climatology, meteorology, and more. Read More Read Less
