Descrição pessoal

FRC is a Professor of Fluid Mechanics and Applied Mathematics in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Brasília. He is also a researcher PQ- 1 of CNPq - Brazil since 2000. His current research interests include: rheology of complex fluids; hydrodynamic of magnetic fluids, non-Newtonian fluid dynamics, microhydrodynamics of active and passive particles in suspensions; and mechanics of mobile suspensions in general. His group focuses on developing mathematical and computational modelling tools with experimental investigations, that is highly interdisciplinary.
