Education
AS attended the University of Heidelberg 1987-1990 and graduated with a DEA from the Institut Nonlineaire de Nice in 1991. After graduate studies in Stuttgart and Berlin, he received his PhD from the FU Berlin in 1994. He was an assistant professor at FU Berlin until 2001, when he received his Habilitation. Since 2001 he has worked in the School of Mathematics at the University of Minnesota.
Research
Scheel's research is concerned with patterns and waves in spatially extended dynamical systems. His results include existence, stability, and bifurcation results for coherent structures such as wave trains, invasion fronts, pattern forming fronts, defects in oscillatory media, spiral waves, or defects in striped phases such as grain boundaries and dislocations.
