The Schuh Research Group, directed by Professor Christopher Schuh, performs research in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Our group uses experiments, analytical theory, and computer simulations to explore the processing-structure-property relationships in structural metals and materials, with particular emphasis on the role of structural disorder and its effect on mechanical properties.  Our research covers many length scales, from long-range disorder in grain boundary networks, to the nanoscale disorder in amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys.
