Additionally, ceramic strength and fatigue testing, ceramic fractographical and flaw population analyses, Weibull analysis strength-size-scaling, and probabilistic life prediction and design of structural ceramic components constitutive another primary research objective. In support of all these efforts, both conventional and microstructural-level finite element stress analyses and microstructure characterization are performed. He is the author or co-author of over 100 technical publications and has given over 80 presentations, and is the co-developer of µ-FEA software.
Edgar Lara-Curzio is a Distinguished Research Staff
Member and the leader of the Mechanical Properties and Mechanics
Group at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Since 1999 he has
been serving as leader of the Mechanical Characterization and
Analysis User Center in ORNL’s High Temperature Materials
Laboratory. Lara-Curzio received a B.Sc. degree in
Engineering Physics from the Metropolitan University in Mexico City
in 1986 and a Ph.D. in Materials Engineering from Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute, Troy NY, in 1992.
His research work has been focused on studying the mechanical
behavior, durability and reliability of structural and functional
materials, on understanding the relationships among their
processing, microstructure and properties, studying the effect of
service environment on their properties and on developing models to
describe their behavior and to predict their service life.
Dr. Lara-Curzio has co-edited 6 books and has authored 4 book
chapters and more than 140 publications in refereed journals and
conference proceedings.
