Biography
Morton Friedman is Vice Dean of the School of Engineering and Applied Science. His most recent research has been in developing methods of solution to large-scale structural problems using multiprocessor computing. He has performed research for the National Science Foundation in variational methods for fluids; for NASA in the SST sonic boom; and for DARPA in large scaled computations. He has been a consultant to North Star Construction, Hudson Institute and Computer Usage Corp. in numerical analysis; Weidlinger and Associates and Christensen, Inc., in applied mechanics; and Inference Corporation for Artificial Intelligence software. He has developed accelerated quadrature methods of linear integral equations, accelerated spectral analysis of compact operators, accelerated projection methods, and uniform asymptotic solutions for a differential equation with an almost periodic coefficient.
