Advances in Cold Spray

Dr. Victor K. Champagne, Jr., FASM is recognized internationally as one of the foremost authorities on Cold Spray. He has held numerous positions throughout his career at the US Army Research Laboratory , Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, USA. In his 36 years of materials research and development experience, he has been responsible for the advancement of emerging technologies for the Department of Defense. One of his most significant achievements, was the establishment of the ARL Cold Spray Center, which he led for over twenty years, and is devoted toward research, development and implementation of Cold Spray. Dr. Champagne has over 100 journal publications and 13 patents in cold spray technology. Currently, he is continuing to make extraordinary advances in Additive Manufacturing and the transition of technology into commercial applications. Working closely with industry, research institutes and academia his ideas have been translated into practical use and transitioned into the commercial sector and his achievements have been recognized across the globe. Mostafa Hassani-Gangaraj is an Assistant Professor jointly within the Sibley School of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering (MAE) and the Department of Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) at Cornell. Prior to that, he completed a Senior Research Associate and Lecturer appointment at Cornell, a Post-doctoral appointment at MIT, and a PhD degree at Politecnico di Milano. His research interests lie at the intersection of solid mechanics, structural materials and additive manufacturing. Mostafa is particularly focused on understanding the behavior of materials under extreme conditions and solid-phase processing of materials.
