MMM Lab alumnus and EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Embedded Intelligence (CDT-EI) graduate Dr Joseph A Holt has joined Coventive Composites as Development Engineer.
Joe graduated last summer. We are delighted for him and very sure that we will soon hear from them about Joe’s fantastic contribution to the team and the company.
All the best!
Our work on characterising polymeric foams in-situ, without destructive sample collection and tedious sample preparation has been published in Materials Letters.
Sponsored by the Innovate UK under their IDP 14 programme, this study correlates the results from an Ultrasonic technique to the more traditional quasi-static Universal Testing Machine approach, and in this way manufacturers and quality control personnel can assess the material before it has left the production line.
