An experimental physicist whose research measures turbulence, Rayleigh-Bénard convection and granular flow. Heating a fluid from below creates rising and sinking motion; rotation and container geometry then alter the patterns and heat transport. His measurements connect visible flow structures with quantitative transport properties, helping test theories of complex fluid motion under controlled laboratory conditions.[ref]
