O autorze

Charles L. Tucker, III, is Research Professor and Alexander Rankin Professor Emeritus at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He was previously Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education and Innovation (2013-2017) and Associate Dean for Undergraduate Programs, College of Engineering (2008-2013) at that university. He developed the method used worldwide to predict the orientation of reinforcing fibers in injection-molded polymer composites. He was editor of the book "Computer Modeling for Polymer Processing" (Hanser, 1989) and coauthor of the book "Modeling in Materials Processing" (Cambridge University Press, 2001).
