Julio A. Hernandez works on advanced materials and manufacturing, including how composite and nanomaterial-based materials respond to impact, high-speed loading, and laser processing. Much of the work focuses on using electrical/piezoresistive properties of nanocomposites to detect strain and damage inside materials, alongside studies of 3D-printed and laser-treated metals. The lab also has some work applying control and filtering methods to assistive robotics.
