Research and advancements have resulted in innovative\nuses of composites in aerospace, auto, marine, space and sporting goods\nindustries. Recent discovery and insertion of nanomaterials (e.g. carbon\nnanotubes) further expand capabilities\/potential of composites for\nmultifunctional applications. However, these materials are relatively new and\ntheir manufacturing often involves\nmultiple complex processing\nsteps. Such issues have created difficulty in\ncomprehensive understanding of the nanomanufacturing processes and the\nresulting materials, and in turn, have limited their application bases. This\npresentation will discuss a\nmethodology and on-going research projects in design and manufacturing of a unique nanomaterial,\ncarbon nanotube buckypaper, in the Industrial and Manufacturing\nEngineering Department and the High-Performance\nMaterials Institute (HPMI) at the Florida State University. Special focus of the presentation will be given on\nthe development and application of physics-based process models and experimental data for design of the buckypaper\nmaterials with desired properties and the corresponding manufacturing processes.\u0026nbsp; \u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u0026nbsp; \u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr.\nChuck Zhang is Professor and Chairman of the Department of Industrial and\nManufacturing Engineering at the Florida A\u0026amp;M University-Florida State University College of Engineering. He is also the Deputy Director of the High-Performance\nMaterials Institute (HPMI) at FSU. He received his Ph.D.\ndegree in Industrial Engineering from the University of Iowa and has been with\nFSU since 1993. Dr. Zhang\u2019s primary research interests include modeling\/simulation\/intelligent\ndesign of composite and nanocomposite materials and their manufacturing\nprocesses, scalable nanomanufacturing, multifunctional material development,\nand geometric tolerancing and metrology. His research projects have been\nsponsored by a number of organizations including National Science Foundation\n(NSF), National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Air Force Office\nof Scientific Research (AFOSR), Army Research Laboratory (ARL), Office of Naval\nResearch (ONR) and Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME), as well as\nindustrial companies such as ATK, Cummins, General Dynamics, GKN Aerospace\nServices, Lockheed Martin and Siemens Power Generation. Dr. Zhang has published\nover 120 refereed journal\narticles and 170 conference papers.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Integrated Design and Manufacturing of Advanced Nanomaterials with Physics-Based Process Models and Experimental Data"}],"uid":"27187","created_gmt":"2011-10-31 09:58:15","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 01:56:28","author":"Anita Race","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2011-11-08T10:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2011-11-08T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2011-11-08T11:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2011-11-08 15:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2011-11-08 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2011-11-08 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1242","name":"School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISYE)"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"166896","name":"seminar"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJennifer Harris\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
