Biography
Dr. Burkholder received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical
engineering from The Ohio State University, Columbus, in 1984,
1985, and 1989, respectively. From 1989 to the present, Dr. Burkholder has
been with The Ohio State University
Department of Electrical
Engineering at the ElectroScience Laboratory
where he is currently a Research Scientist and
Adjunct Associate Professor. His research specialty is in EM
Math Modeling using high-frequency asymptotic techniques and their hybrid
combination with numerical techniques to solving large-scale electromagnetic
radiation and scattering problems. He is also currently involved in the area
of
Remote Sensing and Rough Surface Scattering, studying the
scattering from targets in the presence of random rough surfaces.
