Biography

Andy George finished a BSc in Chemical Engineering, followed by an MSc in Manufacturing Engineering, both at BYU. His Masters thesis was on methods to measure the damage from sun or chemicals to plastics. He then did a PhD on composites processing at the University of Stuttgart's Institute for Aircraft Design. His work there was part of a European research fellowship involving EADS, Fiat, Alstom, BAE, and various universities and research institutes. He then went to work for the Swedish Institute of Composites where he consulted on composites processing, mainly to the European aerospace industry. After almost 3 years there, he finally returned to the US to start at BYU.

Research Interests

Composites processing modeling/optimization. Resin infusion modeling: FE/numerical modeling of porous media flows. Characterization, prediction, and minimization of voids in composite matrices.

Teaching Interests

Composites and plastics: materials and processing; research methods; history of creativity.
