Über den Autor
Grae Worster studied Mathematics at Cambridge University and gained a PhD in Geological Fluid Mechanics. He was an Instructor in Applied Mathematics at MIT, a Research Fellow at Trinity College, Cambridge and an Assistant Professor at Northwestern University before finally returning to Cambridge University in 1992, where he is Professor of Fluid Dynamics. Within the Institute of Theoretical Geophysics, his research encompasses the dynamics of buoyancy-driven flows associated with solidification and melting.
