Speaker information
Professor Tom Mullin , University of Manchester. Professor Mullin's primary research interests lie in the bifurcation phenomena in viscous fluid flows. Most of his work has been concerned with instabilities in the flow between concentric cylinders, commonly called Taylor-Couette flow. He finds this a particularly interesting problem because "it is one of the very few fluid dynamical problems where one can carry out quantitative comparison between the results of numerical calculations of the Navier-Stokes equations on physical boundary conditions and experimental observations".
