Scientific interests

• phase transformations and microstructure changes in titanium alloys
• experimental methods employing synchrotron radiation (e.g. small-angle X-ray scattering, anomalous diffraction, in situ X-ray diffraction)
• investigation of phase transformations using in situ laboratory methods (differential scanning calorimetry, dilatometry, electric resistance measurement) and laboratory X-ray diffraction
• an offer of student projects and bachelor and diploma theses

International cooperation

• Institut Jean Lamour, University of Lorraine, Nancy, France – titanium alloys for high temperature applications
• Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Ohio State University, Columbus, USA – phase transformations in titanium alloys

Educational and research stays

• School of Materials Science and Engineering, Clemson University, Clemson, USA (2 months)
• HERCULES – Higher European Research Course for Users of Large Experimental Systems, Grenoble, Francie (1 month)

Awards

2015      Acta Student Award for paper published in Acta Materialia in 2014
