He came to the forefront of non-Newtonian fluid mechanics and rheology by his seminal work on flow instabilities, followed by his contribution to extensional rheology of filaments (the Caber rheometer) and the interpretation of largeamplitude oscillatory shear. More recently he has made significant advances in interfacial engineering (colloid science). |
