Schneider is Professor of Physics at the U.S. Naval
Academy where he has taught midshipmen since 1968. His
research accomplishments for the Naval Surface Warfare
Center since 1976 have included the nonlinear theory of
magnetoelasticity, matrix degaussing of ships and the
theory of the jumping ring/electric drive. He coordinates
classroom demonstrations in basic physics and is
developing interactive computer questions for reading
testing, demonstration introduction and concept
development in the classroom. ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
