ABOUT
Directed by Professor Julie M.
Schoenung, the JMS Research Group synthesizes, characterizes and models
new materials to meet the increasing demands of ballistic,
transportation and energy applications. The group is also
involved in a Green Engineering initiative, investigating the impacts
of materials transactions on human health and environmental
quality.
Current
research focuses on synthesis of
lightweight - high strength nanocrystalline structural materials,
improving thermal fatigue behavior in thermal barrier coatings,
investigation of laser engineered net shaping (LENS) fabrication
methods, studying the mechanical behavior of ultra-fine grained
ceramics and investigation of environmentally benign electronics. The
group also participates in the Green Materials Lead Campus Program.
