Recenzje

"This book fulfills its intention to provide a reference book containing a collection of publications on thin films and coatings made of ceramic and metals used for energy and environmental applications. It covers a broad range of this topic and provides a comprehensive insight. Graduate and undergraduate students of materials science and mechanical engineering can find an overview on this topic to step in this interesting field of engineering." (Ralph Bäßler, Materials and Corrosion, Vol. 70 (3), March, 2019)

Dr. Jing Zhang is Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Indian University – Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI). Prior to this, he was Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) between 2005-2011. He received his B.S. degree in Metal Forming from University Science and Technology Beijing in 1996, and his M.S. in Manufacturing Engineering from Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics China in 1999. He earned his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from Drexel University in 2004. He also received postdoctoral research training in the FOCUS Center at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) between 2004 -2005. His current research interests include renewable energy materials and additive manufacturing, with a focus on process-structure-property relationship and processing modeling. Dr. Zhang’s research has been supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Air Force Research Laboratory, National Science Foundation, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and other funding agencies.

Dr. Yeon-Gil Jung is Professor of School of Materials Science and Engineering at Changwon National University, Republic of Korea. He also serves as the Vice President of the Korean Ceramic Society. He received his B.S, M.S, and Ph.D. degrees from Hanyang University, Republic of Korea. After that, he studied material property evaluation using Hertzian Indentation at NIST (National Institute Standard and Technology) with Dr. Brian Lawn during 1997-1999. He joined Changwon National University in 1999. He has been a visiting scholar and research professor since 2013 at Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis. His recent research is focused on Microstructure Design and Properties Evaluation in Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBCs) and Development and Fabrication Process of Ceramic Core using Organic/Inorgainc Binder System. He has published 200+ papers and 50+ patents related to the materials science and engineering. He was awarded "Progress in Academics" in 2001, and "Progress in Technology" in 2007 by the Korean Ceramic Society, and “A Governor Citation” in 2013 by the Gyeongsangnam-do governor.
