Dr. Gobinda Saha, an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UNB and Director of the Nanocomposites and Mechanics Lab, will give a talk at 1:00 pm on Wednesday, March 8, in Rm. 212 of the School of Sustainable Design Engineering. Details are below. All are welcome!

Cermet Nanostructured Composites and High Pressure Cold Spray Coatings for Engineered Surfaces

The presentation will discuss the industrial challenges facing structural and non-structural materials in technology-intensive, high-end applications such as energy and environment, industrial manufacturing, aerospace and defence, automotive, and bio-resources. In doing so, the highlights of Dr. Gobinda Saha's research and innovation work in the Nanocomposites and Mechanics Laboratory at the University of New Brunswick in design, synthesis, manufacturing, testing/characterization and applications of ceramic-metallic (cermet) nanocomposite particles and high pressure cold spray coatings will be presented. The talk will further continue into the other major research area in design and pultrusion manufacturing of biocomposites reinforced with biochar nanoparticles in conventional GFRP composites for structural applications.
