RESEARCH

Connecting process, structure, and properties.

A research direction built around physical questions, informed by experiment, simulation, and machine learning.

01

Manufacturing

Processing conditions
and materials design

02

Microstructure

Structure across
scales and interfaces

03

Properties

Connecting structure
with material response

Microstructure & characterization

Material behavior emerges from structure across scales. This theme connects characterization, computational representations of microstructure, and physical modeling—from hard carbon electrodes to fibrous paper materials.
