IRG I: Stress In Thin Film and Small Scale Structures @ Brown University
Research Fields: | Mechanics of Materials |
Faculty participants: A.F. Bower, E. Chason, L.B. Freund, P. Guduru, K.S. Kumar, B.W. Sheldon, V. Shenoy, (7 students, 1 post-docs)
A major unifying theme of IRG1 is the coupling between stress, surface kinetics and surface energetics to understand dynamical evolution at small length scales.
