My research focuses on terrestrial planets and moons. I am particularly interested in polar ice caps and their interactions with planetary atmospheres. For example, the polar deposits of Mars record ...
Metallic phase change material (mPCM) with operating temperatures of 100 °C to 600 °C is used. Due to their thermophysical properties, such storage materials, which are new in this application, have ...
He received the College of Engineering's Education Excellence Award in 2003. He is an editor of the Journal of Nanoscale and Microscale Thermophysical Engineering, and is on the editorial board of the ...
Dissertation/Thesis Title: Intermolecular interactions and solvent diffusion in ordered nanostructures formed by self-assembly of block copolymers MS: Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, (2001), ...
The aim was to determine its significance as one of the main mechanisms for microcrack formation and to correlate the extent of microcracking to the presence of different resin toughening agents and ...
Dr. Nickerson’s research focuses on the “Mechanobiology of Infectious Disease”, a discipline that her team helped launch over two decades ago with the discovery that the physical force of ...
The radiometer miniRAD developed by DLR will measure the surface radiation of the Martian moon Phobos in order to determine the surface temperature and the thermophysical properties of the surface. In ...
The mission instruments include: ISRO's Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Mid-Infrared Spectrometer (MIR), Permittivity and Thermophysical Investigation for Moon’s Aquatic Scout (PRATHIMA), and ...
