I am very happy to Welcome Sudheer GANISETTI in my group as design ingeneer (ingénieur d'étude) to work on the ANR Project AtoUum "Atomistic fundamentals of plasticity at interfaces in lightweight complex alloys and transfer to continuum models". As former PhD student at the FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, Sudheer is an expert in molecular dynamics of glasses and in the implementation of interatommic potential in MPI codes.

I have been honored to present our work on the numerical atomistic characterization of interfacial plasticity: the case of complex lightweight intermetallics, on June 28, 2022, at the International Conference on Strength of Materials (ICSMA) that was held in Metz (France). This was part of the honorary symposium for Alain Jacques.

I am glad to talk about Atomistic Aspects of the Plasticity in Complex Intermetallics of our work during a TimeMan Seminar, on Mars 24, 2022, at 14:00 (GMT+2). The TimeMan Seminar is a virtual seminar series intended to provide a venue for continued sharing of academic ideas and results of relevance for our community in a time when travel to conferences and seminars has been significantly impacted. This is part of the ERC Advanced Grant TimeMan.

Our new letter Features of a nano-twist phase in the nanolayered Ti₃AlC₂ MAX phase is now published in Scripta Materialia. I am glad to share this work accomplished with my colleagues from the LEM3, Dr. Guitton and Dr. Taupin, as well as with our collaborators Dr. Vallet and Dr. Yu. Our investigations revealed the nano-scale features of a nano-scaled twisted phase in the complex intermetallic Ti₃AlC₂ phase (so-called MAX phase). Additionnaly, we explored the continuum representation of such complex rotational defect.

The preprint of the manuscript is avaible on the open-access public archive HAL [hal-03207521].

I am glad to welcome Houssam KHAROUJI in my group as PhD student. He will work on the atomic-scale discrete characterization of plasticity at interfaces in lightweight complex alloys and transfer to continuum models under the supervision of Vincent TAUPIN and myself. We are very gratefull to the support of the LabEx DAMAS and the Région Grand-Est.

I am honored to have been elected as a member of the section 9 of the French Comity for Scientific Research (Comité National de la Recherche Scientifique, CoNRS) for the periode 2021-2024. With my colleagues of the section (Scientific domains of the section 9: Solid mechanics. Materials and structurals. Biomechanics. Acoustics.), we will contribute to the scientific organisation and evaluation of the scientists and laboratories of the CNRS.
