With a great pleasure and happiness, I would like to congratulate Professor Stefan Pogatscher for achieving great success in its first place in the 2022 Houskapreiss All Starts! Professor Pogatscher led a team of rising stars (Dr. Stemper and Dr. Schmid) into the development of a new class of aluminium alloys with potential to revolutionize … Continue reading Houskapreis 2022 All Starts: First place to Professor Pogatscher!
Sharing my new seminar slides with the community on the challenges to design and evaluate new materials for extraterrestrial applications! This research has been only possible via an international collaboration with the brilliant metallurgy minds present at the Montanuniversität Leoben! Super interesting new works coming very very soon! Available at the ResearchGate! (LA-UR-22-23107) https://www.researchgate.net/publication/359771021_The_solar_system_as_a_new_frontier_for_materials_at_extremes
The Parker Solar Probe just encountered an intense energetic particle radiation stream on its way to the Sun. A beautiful video from NASA! Particle irradiation emitted by the Sun's and its effects on functional metallic alloys it is one of our most important research fields nowadays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQXNqhQzBLM
As part of an excellent PhD work (under completion) of my friend Lukas Stemper, a novel class of aluminium alloys is currently under development at Montanuniversitaet Leoben. This is an exciting field of research on advanced aluminium alloys with several potential applications in modern human technology. Check our most recent papers on the topic. A. … Continue reading A Novel Class of Aluminium Alloys
Great news coverage of our article by Tim Oscroft! https://www.hud.ac.uk/news/2020/december/alloy-research-manned-space-missions-benefits/ Manned space missions in spacecraft made of aluminium that is light yet resistant to radiation could be a step nearer following research involving a world-leading facility at the University of Huddersfield. The MIAMI-2 – Microscopes and Ion Accelerators for Materials Investigations – facility has helped Dr Matheus Tunes investigate … Continue reading Aluminium alloy research could benefit manned space missions

Breathtaking! Aluminium is the devil's metal...
Under the supervision of Professor Stefan Pogatscher and in collaboration with a strong scientific network, I am delighted to share our two "most fresh" papers pushing up the frontiers of Aluminium Metallurgy. The first "Age-hardening response of AlMgZn alloys with Cu and Ag additions" is a comprehensive assessment on the heat-treatment response and mechanical properties … Continue reading Cutting edge Aluminium metallurgy!
