Timothy J. Healey is an American applied mathematician working in the areas of nonlinear elasticity, partial differential equations and the calculus of variations[1]. He is currently a professor in the Department of Mathematics, Cornell University[2].
Education and Career[edit]
Healey received his bachelor's degree in engineering from the University of Missouri in 1976 and worked as a structural engineer between 1978 and 1980[3]. He received his PhD from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1985 under the guidance of Robert Muncaster in mathematics with mentoring from Donald Carlson and Arthur Robinson in mechanics[4]. He spent a postdoctoral year with Stuart Antman at the University of Maryland before joining the faculty at Cornell University, where he has held full-time positions in the Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, Mechanical and Aerospace engineering and Mathematics[5].
Research[edit]
Healey's research focuses on mathematical aspects of elasticity theory[6]. In his early career, he made fundamental contributions to the study of global bifurcations in problems with symmetry using group-theoretic methods[7]. He is also known for development of a topological degree similar to the Leray-Schauder degree which leads to the existence of solutions in nonlinear elasticity[8][9].
