Stephen and Greg Spend Summer at Boeing Seattle as part of NSF GOALI Research
Gregory Freihofer, a recent PhD graduate from the Aerostructures lab, wins second place at the SAMPE CAMX conference in the student research symposium. CAMX stands for The Composites and Advanced Materials Expo and is a conference that is dedicated for the advancement of all aspects of composites and advanced materials. The student research symposium is a competitive program that sponsors students to present the results of their technical research. Gregory won a cash prize of $1,000 for his work.
Stephen and Greg Spend Summer at Boeing Seattle as part of NSF GOALI Research
Stephen traveled to Seattle to conduct experiments at the shock physics lab in Boeing Seattle with Gregory Freihofer and the shock physics team: Dr. Housen Bill Sweet, Dr. Damazo and Wayne Campbell, These experiments take the NSF funded GOALI Research on “Developing piezospectroscopic adhesives and coatings” and tests it in the dynamic region. The high strain rates experiments were conducted with the shock physics lab’s split Hopkinson bar and the lab’s portable spectrometer.
