Materials Science · Crystalline Defects · Electron Microscopy
Combining advanced electron microscopy, in-situ testing, and multiscale modelling to understand how crystalline defects govern the physical properties of materials.
Elementary plasticity mechanisms and dislocation-interface interactions
Crystalline defects govern how materials deform, harden, and fracture. I study how these defects nucleate, multiply, and interact with interfaces.
Composite and functional materials: interfaces, mechanical properties and hydrogen storage
I investigate how interfaces in composite materials control deformation and functional properties, including solid-state hydrogen storage and the role of microstructural features on absorption and desorption kinetics.
Development and formalization of advanced electron microscopy techniques
To characterize defects inside materials, I develop and formalize new electron microscopy methods: ECCI, on-axis TKD, STEM-in-SEM, and automated large-scale dislocation mapping.
