Biography
Dr. Tony Yeung is a professor belongs to the department of Chemical and Materials Engineering from the university of Alberta.
Research Interest
Research Areas: interfacial transport; deformable surfaces on the micron scale Dr Yeung's chief research interests are the mechanics and thermodynamics of fluid-fluid interfaces, two-dimensional transport phenomena, and experimental studies on microscopic deformable surfaces. This work has application in the areas of emulsions, oil sands processing, macromolecules at fluid-fluid interfaces (e.g., water-based coatings, food colloids, biomembranes) and the attachment/transport of particulates at the oil water interface. Dr. Yeung is a project leader with the Centre for Oil Sands Innovation. Principal Research Interest: Microinterfacial Phenomena Physical systems of interest are deformable surfaces on the micrometre scale. In particular, we study: mechanics and thermodynamics of fluid-fluid interfaces two-dimensional transport phenomena experimental studies on microscopic deformable surfaces.
