Research Interests: Rotating thin films

Interest in studying rotation of thin films comes from the industrial process of spin coating. There undesirable fingering instabilities have been observed. I work on computational model which describes dynamics of spinning thin film including effects of all forces affecting the fluid on the fluid motion.
