Thermophysical Property Analysers for Materials under Extreme Environments

The development of new materials with properties specifically tailored to withstand the extreme environmentsbegins with understanding the physical nature of the processes involved, including the properties of atoms andmolecules extending from the nanoscale to the collective behaviour at the macroscale. This relies on theknowledge achieved with new capabilities of analytical tools to open new avenues for developing the materials.This project aims to strengthen Australian research activities in the development of advanced materials forenergy, defence and space, and advanced manufacturing technologies through establishing a high temperature,high pressure and high force materials characterisation suite for extreme environments at UNSW.
