Gyan P. Johari is a British-Canadian engineering researcher. He is a Professor Emeritus of Materials Science and Engineering at McMaster University. Johari is best known for his contributions to the state of liquids and the Johari–Goldstein relaxation.
Career[edit]
While teaching in New York City, Johari collaborated with Martin Goldstein in studying the state of liquids. Together, they discovered a dynamical process in viscous liquids and in the glassy state of polar liquids. Their research into a universal property of glasses and certain other disordered materials was published as the Johari–Goldstein relaxation.[1][2] After joining the faculty at McMaster University, Johari was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in 1993.[3] In 2007, Johari received an honorary degree from Trinity College Dublin.[2]
