Personal profile
About
Dr. TeBeest, who has an earned doctorate from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, has expertise in applied and computational mathematics and computational fluid dynamics. Specifically, his doctoral dissertation was entitled, "Linear Stability and Bifurcation of Natural Convection Flows within Arbitrary-Gap, Concentric Spherical Annulus Enclosures." His current research, begun in late 2018--early 2019, focuses on the numerical investigation of the stability and bifurcation of rapidly accelerated solid shells using various stress-strain models. To date Professor TeBeest has taught more than 18 different courses in 3 different major programs (mathematics, engineering, and physics).
