Canada
Expert studied piping system vibration as part of his PhD research and has since continued to work in this area. He has worked on problems involving stability and vibration of piping systems including random vibration of pipes and shells due to turbulence.
The study of vibration has been the backbone of Expert' training in undergraduate and graduate studies. It is from this general area that he has focused on his specialties of flow-induced and piping system vibration.
