POTSDAM – Clarkson University has appointed Aikaterini Bellou to Assistant Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.
Bellou has served in several roles within the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department, Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department, and the Center for Advanced Materials Processing, most recently as a Visiting Assistant Professor.
Bellou's research focuses on the relationship between mechanical properties and microstructure of multicomponent systems, with a particular emphasis on nanocomposite materials, thin films, and one-dimensional structures. She has authored several publications, and her collaborative research has been featured in the MRS Materials 360 Newsletter.
Bellou is currently investigating the strengthening mechanisms in nature-inspired metal/ceramic multi-nanolayered composites to develop coatings that are both strong and tough, with enhanced resistance to localized impact and corrosion under high temperatures and pressures. This research is conducted in collaboration with faculty from Clarkson University, the University of Michigan-Dearborn, and staff scientists at the Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies (CINT) at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
