There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Ali P. GordonA Georgia Tech mechanical engineering alum will be a featured speaker as part of an ASM International Materials event, January 27, entitled “Transforming Materials Science Education by Integrating Testing and Simulation.”
Ali P. Gordon earned a Ph.D. from Georgia Tech in 2006. He now serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering (MAE) at the University of Central Florida.
His principal research activities are focused on the development of continuum-level models to predict behavior and life of materials subjected to complex operating conditions. This research is particularly useful for structural integrity engineers seeking to develop service intervals for components subjected to extreme combined environments. In the classroom, his primary responsibilities are to instruct graduate and undergraduate curricula related to analytical and experimental mechanics of materials. Ali is an active member of ASME.
The webinar will discuss ways to improve undergraduate instruction in materials science principles such as tensile strength, fatigue and fracture mechanic.
A live Q&A will follow. For more information, visit https://asminternational.webex.com.
ASM International was founded in 1913 as the American Society for Metals. Today, ASM is the world's largest association of metals-centric materials scientists and engineers with over 30,000 members worldwide. ASM is dedicated to informing, educating and connecting the materials community to solve problems and stimulate innovation around the world.
