Dr. Kingstedt presented the work of Nathan and former Caltech mentee, Moriah Bischann at the SEM annual conference. Nathan and Moriah investigated the role of texture on the dynamic response of thermo-mechanically processed light-weight Magnesium alloy AZ31B using strain rate jump experiments on the split-Hopkinson pressure bar.

Welcome Roger!

Roger Beal, a student supported by the U.S. Air Force STEM+M program joins the research group to pursue a PhD focused on investigating the fatigue life behavior of additively manufacture Ti64.

Congratulations to Raphael and Eric!

Undergraduate researchers Raphael Chanut and Eric Bellan have been selected to be a participant in the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP). Raphael will utilize electron backscatter diffraction to investigate the post-deformation microstructure of Mg Alloy AZ31B with a specific focus on deformation twinning. Eric’s project will result in the creation of a miniature Omni-magnet for non-contact magnetic manipulation of soft polymers and biological materials. Congratulations on being selected and on well written UROP proposals.

Welcome Ronaldo!

The research group continues to expand with Raphael Chanut, an undergraduate in Mechanical Engineering joining the research group! He will explore his interests in the high strain-rate mechanics of materials by supporting ongoing projects.

Welcome Tanner!

A warm welcome to our newest lab member, Tanner Snow, a freshman supported by the Engineering Scholars program. Tanner will begin his engineering journey in the group creating CAD model of a 60mm diameter SHPB on campus

Welcome Nathan!

Nathan Briggs becomes the first graduate student to join the group. Nathan is a U of U alumni, having earned B.S. degrees in Mathematics and Mechanical Engineering in Spring 2016. During his time as an undergraduate, he completed research opportunities at Washington State University and within the Mathematics Department at the University of Utah. The lab is excited to have Nathan join us as we begin establishing the lab.
