主讲人简介：

David Srolovitz 美国人，1978年毕业于罗格斯大学(Rutgers University)，1986年获美国宾夕法尼亚大学(University of Pennsylvania)博士学位。现为美国宾夕法尼亚大学教授，宾大计算科学研究所所长。曾任普林斯顿大学机械与宇航工程系主任、叶史瓦学院院长、新加坡科技研究局高性能计算研究所所长。

主要从事理论与计算材料科学等方面的研究工作。在包括材料缺陷的结构、固体微结构与形貌演化、材料力学行为与薄膜生长等领域取得了具有开创性与重大影响力的研究成果。其在包括Nature，Science，PNAS、PRL等著名杂志上共发表超过450篇文章，共获得超过26,000次引用，h因子达83。David Srolovitz教授现为美国材料学会(MRS)、美国矿物金属材料学会(TMS)、美国金属学会(AMS International)以及物理研究所(Institute of Physics London)会士，2013年当选为美国工程院院士，并与同年获得美国材料学会材料理论奖。

David Srolovitz is the author of well over 450 papers on topics in materials theory and simulations ranging from defects (surfaces, grain boundaries, dislocations, point defects), microstructure evolution (grain growth, dislocations, stress effects, phase transformations), deformation (nanomaterials, dislocation motion, creep), and film growth (sputtering, evaporation, CVD) and has an h-index of 83 with more than 26,000 literature citations. He is a Member of the National Academy of Engineering, Fellow of MRS, TMS, ASM, Institute of Physics and is the winner of the 2013 MRS Materials Theory Award. Srolovitz did his undergraduate work in Physics at Rutgers University and PhD from the University of Pennsylvania. He was a staff member at Exxon Corporate Research and Los Alamos National Laboratory early in his career and then was professor at the University of Michigan (Materials Science and Applied Physics), Princeton University (Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Applied Mathematics), and the University of Pennsylvania (Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics), where he is currently the Joseph Bordogna Professor of Engineering and Applied Science and Director of the Penn Institute for Computational Science. He also served as the Executive Director of the Institute of High Performance Computing and the Scientific Director of the Science and Engineering Research Council in Singapore.
