Biography
Dr. Matthieu Gresil joined the School of Materials in February 2014 as Lecturer in Composite Materials, non-destructive evaluation (NDE) and Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). He obtained his BSc degree in Physics (University of Nantes, France) and MSc degree in Physics option Matter and Materials (University of Nantes, France). He completed his PhD from Ecole Normale Superieure at Cachan, France in 2009 in collaboration with DCNS (French Navy) on the integration of functions (SHM and electromagnetic shielding) in composite materials. Then, he joined the University of South Carolina as Post-doctoral Research Fellow (2010-2014) and conducted research on SHM using multi-physics finite element to study guided wave propagation in composite and metallic structures. Current research efforts include developing advanced multi-functional composite and nanocomposite structures, using piezoelectric sensors, distributed optical fibre, graphene, carbon nanotubes, to develop imaging strategies for SHM system to perform in real-time and in-situ damage detection. Moreover, we developed new advanced composite materials to improve their electrical and thermal conductivity.
