Current Graduate Research Assistants
Baojian Guo has passed the oral preliminary exams and written qualifying exams and is now a Ph.D. candidate in the Materials Engineering Program. He is pursuing research into applications of electromagnetic levitation for enhanced characterization of the thermophysical properties of molten metals (thermal expansion, heat capacity, latent heats, etc.).

Rui Shao has passed the oral preliminary exams and written qualifying exams and is now a Ph.D. candidate in the Materials Engineering Program. She is pursuing research into the interparticle forces and cohesive flow of fine particulates. More information on her research can be found by clicking here.
George Teodorescu has passed the oral preliminary exams and written qualifying exams and is now a Ph.D. candidate in the Materials Engineering Program. He is pursuing research into applications of electromagnetic levitation for characterization of the surface radiative properties of high temperature (including molten) metals.
