Inscription. Shao L. Soo's research at Illinois from 1959 to 1992 helped clarify the intricacies in the physics and equations of motion governing multiphase flows, in particular the electric effects in gas/solid particle flows. Soo's work allowed scientists to predict the motions of fluids composed of multiple phases, which had a significant impact on energy conversion, combustion processes, and particle transport systems.
