Jeff Morris
Education
Georgia Institute of Technology, BS,1989
California Institute of Technology, MS, 1991
California Institute of Technology, PhD, 1996
Courses Taught
Suspension mechanics, colloidal suspensions, fluid mechanics and multiphase flow, rheology.
Research Interests
These are in the properties and dynamics of flowing mixtures, with goal of developing a dynamic materials science. A major focus has been to carry scientific understanding of nonequilibrium microstructure and rheology in sheared suspensions to engineering applications through flow modeling.
