Nanostructures Via Thermal Spray: Processing, Properties And Modelling

Professor Christopher Berndt, President of the American Society of Materials (ASM International) was recently in UniSIM to share his latest research work in thermal spray processes. The seminar, titled "Nanostructures via Thermal Spray: Processing, Properties and Modelling" was held on 31 July and was the first to be jointly organised by UniSIM's School of Science & Technology, Nanyang Technological University and the Institute of Materials (East Asia). Renowned world-wide in the thermal spray industry, Prof Berndt spoke on the technical challenges of producing nanostructured materials using thermal spray processes and presented possible strategies to overcome these barriers. He also challenged the audience to think out of the box on exploring the opportunities which the latest research work could present.
