Valentin MonakhovValentin Monkhov was Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Professor, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, a prominent scientist, mathematician-mechanic, specialist in the field of fluid dynamics, filtration theory of multiphase flids, and mathematical physics. He made a great contribution to the development of the classical methods for solving free boundary problems for nonlinear models arising in gas dynamics, nonlinear filtering and elastic-plastic medium. He studied the problem of interfacing high-speed streams of viscous fluids in wells and open channels with its filtration flows in the environment, as well as the solvability of boundary value problems for some variants of this pairing. In additionl to the traditional models, he made a number of new models of oil reservoirs. He is widely known and respected in the scientific community in Russia and abroad. Read More Read Less
