About this title

About the Author

Dr. Dongming Zhu is a senior materials research engineer at NASA Glenn Research Center. He is an internationally recognized leader in the area of turbine engine coating technology with over 15 years of professional experience. He has led the development of new environmental barrier coatings for future generations of turbine engines, and he has also led the development of advanced laboratory test techniques for evaluating performance of advanced turbine engine coatings. He received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in Materials Science and Engineering from Hefei University of Technology, Hefei, China. He received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering and Materials Science from the University of Minnesota.

Waltraud M. Kriven received a Ph.D. in 1976 in Solid State Chemistry from the University of Adelaide in South Australia. The B.Sc. (Hons) and Baccalaureate degrees were in Physical and Inorganic Chemistry, and Biochemistry, also in Adelaide. Professor Kriven has internationally recognized expertise in the areas of phase transformations in inorganic compounds and their applications in structural ceramic composites, geopolymers, and low temperature synthesis of oxide ceramic powders. In addition she has made extensive contributions to oxide composites design, microstructure characterization by electron microscopy techniques and phase equilibria.
