I\u0026rsquo;ll review examples for the design of materials for applications in aerospace and transportation.\u0026nbsp; In additional I\u0026rsquo;ll touch on path to the future of materials design and the challenges for materials in our complicated and warming world. \u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBiography\u003C\/strong\u003E:\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EDr. Charlie Kuehmann has been a leader in computational materials design since its inception. \u0026nbsp;In creating the first company dedicated to commercializing computational materials design, he\u0026rsquo;s innovated the first materials and alloys from this new technology; from high-performance steels for race cars, aluminum alloys for aircraft, gear materials for helicopters, high-temperature alloys for turbine engines, and even bubble-gum. \u0026nbsp;As the computational materials design revolution has gained momentum, and been embraced by government and private R\u0026amp;D organizations through the Accelerated Insertion of Materials and Materials Genome Initiative, Dr. Kuehmann has brought the technology to the consumer electronics industry and most recently to electric vehicles and spacecraft. \u0026nbsp;Dr. Kuehmann currently leads the materials engineering organizations at both Tesla and SpaceX, driving material solutions to enable the world\u0026rsquo;s transition to a sustainable future, the commercialization of space and a multi-planetary civilization.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EClick \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/materials-innovation-lecture-featuring-dr-charlie-kuehmann-tickets-36890665975\u0022\u003Ehere\u003C\/a\u003E to register.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Charlie Kuehmann, Vice President of Materials Engineering at SpaceX and Tesla Motors, will visit Georgia Tech as part of the Institute for Materials Innovation Lecture Series."}],"uid":"32022","created_gmt":"2017-08-07 19:00:11","changed_gmt":"2017-08-29 19:32:09","author":"Farlenthia Walker","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2017-09-07T11:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2017-09-07T12:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2017-09-07T12:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2017-09-07 15:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2017-09-07 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2017-09-07 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":["free_food"],"hg_media":{"594152":{"id":"594152","type":"image","title":"Charlie Kuehmann","body":null,"created":"1502132481","gmt_created":"2017-08-07 19:01:21","changed":"1502132481","gmt_changed":"2017-08-07 19:01:21","alt":"","file":{"fid":"226451","name":"Charlie Bio Picture.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/Charlie%20Bio%20Picture.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/Charlie%20Bio%20Picture.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":30254,"path_740":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/Charlie%20Bio%20Picture.jpg?itok=qHNx9aqV"}}},"media_ids":["594152"],"groups":[{"id":"217141","name":"Georgia Tech Materials Institute"},{"id":"263881","name":"Georgia Tech Polymer Network"},{"id":"372221","name":"Renewable Bioproducts Institute (RBI)"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:cecelia.jones@me.gatech.edu\u0022\u003ECecelia Jones\u003C\/a\u003E - \u0026nbsp;Center Manager\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E404-894-7769\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
