IGM Collo. —Order from Chaos: From Engineering Fluids to Astrophysics

02.10.17 — Steve Tobias is Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Leeds. Having completed his PhD in DAMTP, Cambridge on "Nonlinear Solar and Stellar Dynamos" in 1995, he has been a Research Fellow of Trinity College Cambridge (1995-2000), a Research Associate of JILA, University of Colorado (1996-1998) and a Lecturer, Reader and Professor at the University of Leeds. His interests include nonlinear fluid dynamics (including magnetohydrodynamics) and its applications in experiments, geophysics and astrophysics via the application of methods from nonlinear dynamics and statistical physics.
