A Modern Course in Transport Phenomena - Grand Format

David C. Venerus is a Professor of Chemical Engineering in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago. His research interests are in the areas of transport phenomena in soft matter, polymer science and the rheology of complex fluids. Professor Venerus has received numerous teaching awards both within the Department and College of Engineering at Illinois Institute of Technology.
He is a member of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers and of the Society of Rheology. Hans Christian Öttinger is Professor of Polymer Physics at the ETH Zürich. His main research interest is in developing a general framework of nonequilibrium thermodynamics as a tool for describing dissipative classical and quantum systems. He is the author of Stochastic Processes in Polymeric Fluids (1996), Beyond Equilibrium Thermodynamics (2005) and A Philosophical Approach to Quantum Field Theory (Cambridge, 2017).
