Congratulations to freshly graduated Drs. Moyle and Schulz. Notably, Dr. Moyle was Nima’s first joint completion from day one to graduation of a PhD. Bernd was in fact a very early group member, initially as an exchange student in 2016. We celebrated with family and friends in front of the auditorium where Sophie was suffering […]
We celebrated the end of another very successful year at the Holey Moley Alexandria miniature golf course followed by a yummy (health) lunch of pizzas and chips… Thanks Vitor for organising – all photos and videos look really fun. Michael H was clearly the best golfer although our new coursework student Singgih was not bad […]
Congratulations to our recent PhD alumni Maxwell and Vitor for both being awarded the ‘Dean’s Award for Outstanding PhD Theses’. This means that in each case both PhD assessors ranked their PhD theses amongst the top 10% of all PhD theses they ever examined. This is a great testimony to their outstanding PhD research and […]
Huge congratulations to Nima who has accepted a Senior Lecturership offer (tenure track) in the Department of Materials at Imperial College London. Nima will start building up his independent physical metallurgy research program with interests in additive manufacturing and interface engineering in early 2024. Nima was awarded his PhD at Deakin University (Australia) in 2017 where […]
Congratulations to our PostDoc Felix who recently accepted a role as senior technical officer for atom probe sample preparation at the Australian Centre for Microscopy & Microanalysis across the road at USyd. Felix has completed his PhD in our group (2016-2019) and done a highly successful four year PostDoc, both on Ni-based superalloys for aerospace. […]
Sophie was one of the Co-hosts of the 3rd Asia-Pacific International Conference on Additive Manufacturing held at The University Sydney, June 21-23. Almost the entire group participated either as student helpers or as delegates giving excellent presentations. Well done all and thanks for helping to make this meeting a big success. We welcomed around 350 […]
After almost four years of pursuing excellent research programs on thermo-mechanical processing of complex superalloys and additive manufacturing of 17-4 PH stainless steel, Bernd and Max have submitted their theses on May 26! Double congrats! We celebrated this enjoying Indian/British food and beer towers at The Colonial in Darlinghurst. The whole group of HDR students […]
We hosted a very special visitor on May 17, now Dr Mia Maric, who completed an outstanding Honour’s project with us in 2018 (University medal amongst numerous other awards). Since then, she has completed a PhD on nuclear materials in record time at The University of Manchester and worked as a consultant at Jacobs in […]
Warmest congratulations to our recent PhD alumnus and now PostDoc in our group Vitor who graduated on May 9. This was also the graduation ceremony for Hubert Lee who completed a first class Honours degree in our School last year. He is now our latest PhD student addition to team wrought Ni-based superalloys. Welcome Hubert! […]
Philipp Kroeker is from TU Berlin where he is pursuing a Master’s program in Materials Science & Engineering. He will be our visitor for eight months, carrying out his Master’s thesis on the microstructure-corrosion properties of additively manufactured duplex stainless steel. We took this opportunity to have after work drinks at the UNSW roundhouse. We […]
