Dr. Christopher L. Mullen joined the faculty at
Ole Miss in 1996. His primary teaching interests are in structural
mechanics and structural engineering. His doctorate was obtained
from Princeton University in 1996 and he obtained an M.S.C.E. in
1981 and a B.S.C.E. in 1978 from Rice University. He has been a
practicing engineer for over 10 years in the fields of offshore,
automotive, and bridge engineering, specializing in structural dynamics
and fatigue analysis. He has been involved with structural integrity
analyses of a 750 ft deep offshore platform in the Gulf of Mexico,
an engine for one of the Saturn automobiles, three major steel suspension
bridges over the East River in New York City, and the Hagia Sophia
basilica in Istanbul, Turkey. His dissertation and current research
interests relate to the seismic response analysis of three-dimensional
structural systems, including both modern and historic bridges and
building structures. He is especially interested in nonlinear computational
techniques that are suitable for use in combination with field experiments
that measure actual system response. He is currently faculty advisor
to the Ole Miss Chapter of Chi Epsilon and to the student chapter
of the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE).
