Oliver B. Fringer Assistant Professor & Leavell Family Faculty Scholar Environmental Fluid Mechanics and Hydrology

B.S.E. (1995) Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Princeton University.
M.S. (1996) Aeronautics and Astronautics, Stanford University.
Ph.D. (2001) Civil and Environmental Engineering, Stanford University.

Oliver Fringer focuses on the application of numerical models and parallel computing to the study of laboratory- and field-scale environmental flows. His research interests include the development of parallel unstructured grid solvers for coastal flows, with application to internal wave dynamics and sediment transport. At the laboratory scale, he is interested in performing joint model and experimental studies of fundamental processes in stratified turbulence, with an emphasis on breaking internal waves.
