Short Bio

Dr. Kai Schneider is Full Professor of Mechanics and Applied Mathematics at Aix Marseille University, Marseille, France, since 2000. He obtained his Master degree in  Applied Mathematics in 1993 and his Ph.D. degree in 1996, both from the University of Kaiserslautern, Germany. In 2001 he got his Habilitation from the University Louis Pasteur, Strasbourg, France. His current research activities are focused on the development of multiscale techniques and wavelets for scientific computing and their application for modeling and computing turbulent fluid and plasma flows, including fluid-structure interaction with application to bio-fluids, multi-phase flows and magnetohydrodynamic turbulence.
