Research area:
The technology development of the ceramic-metal composite materials, functionally graded materials (FGM’s), joining of advanced materials.
The research work includes both the fabrication and characterization of composites, FGM’s
and joints, with particular account for the physical and chemical phenomena that accompany the processes of their fabrication.
