Research in the Complex Fluids Rheology group focuses on understanding and controlling complex, or structured, fluids in engineering applications. Walker’s group’s work is primarily experimental and involves rheometric characterization, classical colloid and macromolecular analytical techniques, small-angle scatterning and microfluidic tools. They collaborate closely with others in the Center for Complex Fluids Engineering. Two main themes, Impact of Nanoscale Structure on Rheology and Behavior of Complex Systems with Fluid-Fluid Interfaces, run through the group and their interests lie in applying fundamental knowledge and ideas to real engineering situations.
