D. Dolgopyat is the winner of the second Brin Prize in Dynami- cal Systems (2009). This article overviews his remarkable achievements in a nontechnical manner. It complements two other surveys of Dolgopyat's work written by Y. Pesin and C. Liverani and published in this issue. This survey covers Dolgopyat's work on various physical models, including the Lorentz gas, Galton board, and some systems of hard disks.
