'''Surender Kumar Malik''' ('''S.K. Malik''') was an Indian [[mathematician]] who specialised in [[applied mathematics]], especially in [[nonlinear]] phenomena.<br />
<br />
He was awarded in 1983 the [[Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology]], the highest science award in [[India]], in the mathematical sciences category.<br />
<br />
Malik did pioneering work on nonlinear dispersive waves in self-gravitating media, [[electrohydrodynamics]] and [[magnetohydrodynamics]]. In particular his theory on nonlinear<br />
breakup of a self-gravitating column has thrown some light on the phenomenon of condensation in astronomical bodies. His work on nonlinear self-focussing in magnetic fluids is expected to have industrial applications.<ref name=List>{{cite book|author1=Sukumar Mallick |author2=Saguna Dewan |author3=S C Dhawan |title=Handbook of Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize Winners (1958–1998)|year=1999|publisher=Human Resource Development Group, [[Council of Scientific & Industrial Research]]|location=New Delhi|pages=118|url=http://www.csirhrdg.res.in/ssb.pdf}}</ref><br />
