TitleWithers, Philip John: certificate of election to the Royal Society
Date28 April 2016
DescriptionCertificate of Election
CitationProfessor Withers has made seminal contributions to our fundamental understanding of the performance of materials, often in operando under demanding conditions. He has pioneered the use of large-scale neutron and X-ray facilities to probe engineering materials behaviour. His advances in residual stresses mapping methods have underpinned the scientific basis by which we consider their influence on failure. He developed time-lapse X-ray Computed Tomography for 3D imaging of degradation across a range of timescales. Establishing correlative tomography linking together X-ray and electron imaging he has enabled the tracking of the same 3D region of interest from metre to the nanometres length-scale.
