David A. Egolf
Associate Professor

I am a computational physicist interested in a wide variety of physical systems. Most of my recent work has focused on the dynamical and statistical properties of systems maintained far-from-equilibrium. Of particular interest are fluid systems, excitable media such as heart tissue, granular systems, biopolymer networks, and model systems of a more generic nature.

Although this research requires a knowledge of statistical physics, nonlinear dynamics, computer programming, and often fluid mechanics or biology, I usually have 1 or 2 excellent Georgetown undergraduates working with me.

The rest of this site will help you learn a little more about me, the students who have worked with me, the courses I teach, my research, and how to contact me.
