Research Interests
My main research interests lies in understanding the processing, structure and property relationships in materials.
The processing of a materials is known to have a significant effect on its structure and this in turn affects how a material can perfrom in various situations. One of the most fascination classes of materials is that of composites which allows for combining two very different types of materials and material properties into one structure.
My current research project under the supervision of Profs Sam Daly and John Hart involves controlled growth of CNT forests and creating composite structures using these in combination with various other types of materials including metals, ceramics and polymers to create new composites and composite structures.
The ultimate goal is to create active CNT composite structures that can be used in a variety of applications.
