SUMMARY:Engineering with uncertain load regimes and strange materials – 
 the story of aerospace and nuclear safety critical components -   Prof Dav
 e Rugg\, Senior Fellow\, Rolls Royce
DTSTART:20170512T130000Z
DTEND:20170512T140000Z
UID:TALK72131@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Hilde Hambro
DESCRIPTION:The reality of designing and certifying safety critical produc
 t is both fascinating and complex. Often\, life-limiting regimes are unexp
 ected and require deep mechanistic understanding to fully mitigate them. T
 hese issues will be reviewed in the context of current research aimed at i
 mproving our understanding and predictive capability. This will include th
 e evolution of strain heterogeneity in materials and modelling / experimen
 tal techniques for high strain rate loading. In addition\, there will be s
 ome obligatory footage of jet engines blowing up. In addition\, an overvie
 w of the challenges\, rewards and potential frustrations of working in ind
 ustry and managing academic interfaces will be provided. 
LOCATION:Oatley Seminar Room\, Department of Engineering
