The advanced materials and manufacturing group is united by the common thread of material design through understanding how nano, micro, and/or mesoscale mechanisms result in macroscale properties. This work is accomplished through computational, theoretical, experimental, and synthetic approaches. Although our collective work spans nearly all material classes, our strengths are in soft materials (synthetic and biological), composites, and metals.
This research area has strong ties to the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS), the Cornell Center for Materials Research (CCMR) and Cornell NanoScale Science & Technology Facility (CNF).
