Assistant Professor at Hampton University
Hampton, Virginia, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolShibabrat Naik is an applied mathematician and Assistant Professor with 12 years of research and teaching experience specializing in nonlinear dynamics, chaos, and phase-space transport. He develops semi-analytical and computational methods that have been applied to ship capsize, atmospheric and oceanic transport, comet/asteroid capture, structural failure, chemical reactions, and plasma confinement in fusion devices. His career spans postdoctoral and research roles at Warwick, Bristol, Virginia Tech and Penn, blending deep theoretical work with practical, cross-disciplinary applications in engineering and physics. At Hampton University he teaches calculus and differential equations while continuing to translate geometric and topological dynamical-systems tools into real-world problems—a portfolio that reflects both rigorous theory and hands-on modeling across fluid, structural, and plasma systems. An uncommon strength is his track record of applying finite-time coherent set and phase-space transport concepts to diverse domains, connecting abstract dynamics to tangible engineering challenges.
