Problem Solving in Engineering: Analytical Mathematics and Numerical Analysis (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781394179985)

Larry A. Glasgow began his teaching career at Kansas State University in 1978 and taught nearly all of the classes the department of chemical engineering offers, earning numerous teaching awards throughout his 38-year long career before retiring in 2016. Glasgow's research areas of focus concern the interaction of turbulence with fluid-borne entities in multi-phase processes, including flocculation, aggregate breakage and aggregate deformation. In addition, he has investigated bubble formation, coalescence and breakage in aerated reactors, the effects of energetic interfacial phenomena upon cells in culture, and the impulsive distribution of small particles in air-filled chambers. Glasgow has also authored multiple publications, as well as two books: Transport Phenomena: An Introduction to Advanced Topics (2010), and Applied Mathematics for Science and Engineering (2014).
