Paul H. Cohen
Professor and Department Head
Industrial and Systems Engineering at North Carolina State University
Biography
Cohen's work has focused on the modeling of plastic deformation processes, development
of new tooling materials and tribology. His more recent research has examined
properties and processes at the nano-scale. He has served in leadership roles
in industry-based university research centers, published more than 100 papers
and served in editorial positions for leading journals. He has won numerous awards
from the Institute of Industrial Engineers, Society of Manufacturing Engineers,
American Society for Engineering Education and National Science Foundation.
Abstract
Residual Distributions in Machined Surfaces
Cohen's seminar will include research results which shed new light on the nature
of residual stresses in machined surfaces. These results are significant to achieving
product quality and are potentially critical to nano-scale physical machining
of components for future products.
