Keith won the 3rd place in the annual SOE poster competition!!! (Feb. 25, 2016). This success is also highlighted at the UConn MSE website [“Keith Dusoe shines with metallic alloys poster.”, link].

Many congratulations!!

Keith and John attended the annual SOE graduate student poster competition at UConn on Feb. 25, 2016.

Keith’s poster title is “Strong, ductile and thermally stable Cu-based nanocomposite [link]”

John’s poster title is “Giant super-elasticity of novel intermetallic compound CaFe2As2 [link]”.

Gyuho successfully passed his master defense exam on Feb. 22, 2016! Many many congratulations!

The title of this thesis talk was “Study of seal glass for sodium sulfur batter”. This work was done at C2E2 with Dr. Manoj Kumar Mahapatra before joining my group.

During TMS 2016 (Feb 17 and 18), Nashville, TN, Seok-Woo gave two talks.

1. Two different pathways to produce novel Cu-based nanostructured alloys with enhanced strength and ductility (Seok-Woo Lee, Keith Dusoe, Sriram Vijayan, Thomas Bissell, Dale Gouveia, Mark Aindow – all UConn people)

2. Transition of deformation mode in hollow Cu60Zr40 metallic glass nanolattice (Seok-Woo Lee (UConn), David Chen (Caltech), Julia Greer (Caltech))

Also, Seok-Woo chaired the session of themo-mechanical processing in the symposium ultra-fine grained material.

Tyler passed his qualifying exam! Many congratulations!

Keith gave a oral presentation entitled “Novel Cu-based nanostructured alloys with enhanced strength and ductility” at MRS Fall meeting 2015.

At MS&T 2015 (Columbus, OH), Seok-Woo gave a talk entitled “Size effect suppresses brittle failure in hollow Cu60Zr40 metallic glass nanolattices deformed at cryogenic temperature” on 10/7/2015.

Tyler Flanagan (MSE PhD candidate) joined our group! Welcome to join us! He will work on namo-mechanical characterization of metal powders for cold spray application. This work is supported by Army Research Laboratory.

Our research is featured in the MSE website. Here is the link.

Seok-Woo received Teaching Excellence Award for MSE 3004 “Mechanical Behavior of Materials” [Teaching Excellence Letter].
