Richard F. Tinder’s teaching interests have been highly variable during his tenure at Washington State University. They have included crystallography, thermodynamics of solids (both equilibrium and irreversible thermodynamics), tensor properties of crystals, dislocation theory, solid-state direct energy conversion (mainly solar cell theory, thermoelectric effects, and fuel cells), general materials science, advanced reaction kinetics in solids, electromagnetics, and analog and digital circuit theory. In recent years, he has taught logic design at the entry, intermediate, and advanced levels and has published a major text, Engineering Digital Design, on that subject. He has conducted research and published in the areas of tensor properties of solids, surface physics, shock dynamics of solids, milli–micro plastic flow in metallic single crystals, high-speed asynchronous (clock-independent) state machine design, and Boolean algebra (specifically XOR algebra and graphics). Most recently, Prof. Tinder has published an e-book, Relativistic Flight Mechanics and Space Travel (Morgan & Claypool Publishers, 2007). Prof. Tinder holds bachelor of science, master of science, and doctor of philosophy degrees, all from the University of California, Berkeley. He has spent one year as a visiting faculty member at the University of California, Davis, in what was then the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science. Currently, he is professor emeritus of the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Washington State University where he has been a major contributor to the computer engineering program there during a period of nearly two decades.
