Kanellopoulos George

George Kanellopoulos is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Patras, specializing in applied mathematics. He holds a PhD (2012), MSc (2008), and BSc (2005) in Mathematics from the same institution. His research focuses on granular flow dynamics, mathematical modeling of geophysical phenomena, and dynamical systems analysis. He explores complex granular wave behaviors such as roll waves, monoclinal waves, and hydraulic jumps, using Saint-Venant equations and phase space methods.

Teaching responsibilities include undergraduate courses in Calculus II, Ordinary Differential Equations, Classical Mechanics, and graduate courses in Mathematical Modelling. His work often involves collaborations with D. Razis and K. van der Weele, examining granular flow stability, rheology, and nonlinear wave patterns. Recent studies highlight force dynamics in granular waves and the role of Froude number offsets in wave morphology.
