Klaus A. Hoffmann is a
professor of Aerospace Engineering at Wichita State University. He
attended the University of Texas at Austin, where he obtained his B.S.,
M.S., and PhD. degrees in Aerospace Engineering. He has conducted
extensive research in the areas of Navier-Stokes equations, parabolized
Navier-Stokes equations, Euler equations, grid generataion,
boundary-layer computations, magnetohydrodynamics, turbulent flows, and
aerothermodynamic environment of reentry vehicles and hypervelocity
projectiles. His classroom teaching includes introductory fluid
mechanics, boundary layer and heat transfer, propulsion, compressible
fluid mechanics, turbulant flow, hypersonics, introductory computational
fluid dynamics and advanced computational fluid dynamics.
