Research Interests
Current research interests fall into the following areas:
- Laser additive manufacturing and process of metallic alloys.
- Mechanical properties and microstructure characterisation of thermally sprayed coatings
- High temperature oxidation and corrosion of coating and alloys.
- Element diffusion and phase evolution modelling of multi-phase metallic materials.
Currenly recruiting MRes/PhD students working on advanced manufacturing and materials science of novel metals and alloys. I welcome potential canditates to express their interests and develop applications for full PhD scholarships. Please contact me at Hao.Chen@nottingham.edu.cn
