Cement & Concrete
Transport in Porous Media
Nucleation and Growth
Conservation of Art
Sol-Gel Processing
The goal of materials science is to understand how structure controls properties and how processing controls structure. Our focus is the durability and sustainability of building materials, from civil structures to ancient monuments.
