Ken Reifsnider is an expert on advanced material behavior and response, and directs the Institute for Predictive Performance Methodologies at the University of Texas at Arlington Research Center (UTARI). He is a recognized expert in composite materials and high-temperature energy systems. Dr. Reifsnider holds a Presidential Distinguished Professorship at UTA. He previously served as director of the Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Center of Excellence at the University of South Carolina, where he led the States' effort to develop solid oxide fuel cells for applications in society. In 2004, he was elected to the National Academy of Engineering for the development of strength-life prediction relationships in composite materials. He also served two terms as a White House appointee to the U.S. Air Force National Scientific Advisory Board. As a scholar, Dr. Reifsnider has published over 240 articles in refereed journals, several book chapters, and (edited) 11 books. His signature book on "Damage Tolerance and Durability of Composite Material Systems" (Wiley Interscience, 2002) is a foundation for engineers working on composite materials. He has served on the Editorial Boards of six journals, served for ten years as the North American Editor and Editor-in-Chief for the International Journal of Fatigue, is currently Associate Editor of the Journal of Applied Composites, and has served as Associate Editor of the International Journal of Fuel Cell Science and Technology.
