Besmann, Theodore Martin
Professor
Dr. Besmann's research interests are related to thermochemical experiments and modeling for high temperature materials including nuclear fuel development and in-reactor behavior, development of advanced nuclear waste forms, hydrogen storage materials, and fossil energy materials. This includes measurements of basic thermal properties, development of databases for use in performance codes, and coupling of thermochemical models with other properties within codes.
