Ashlie Martini
Ashlie Martini is a tribologist and Professor of Mechanical Engineering[1][2][3] at University of California, Merced.[4]
Biography[]
Education[]
Martini received her Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering in 1998 from Northwestern University,[5] in Evanston, Illinois. She later completed her Doctor of Philosophy in the same field, at the same school, in 2007.[4]
Career[]
She was an Assistant Professor[6] at Purdue University[7] in West Lafayette, Indiana before becoming a Full Professor at University of California, Merced.
Research[]
The topics of study at "Martini Research Group: Fundamental Tribology Lab" at UC Merced include:[4]
- Solid and liquid lubricants
- Tribochemistry
- Nanoscale contact and sliding[8]
Martini's lab helps test dry lubricants for the Mars Rover.[9] "The Martini research group is performing some very critical and important data gathering for us and presenting that data in a way that helps us make critical, mission-sensitive decisions for Mars," said Duval Johnson of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.[10][11]
Awards & honors[]
- American Society of Mechanical Engineers - ASME Burt L. Newkirk Award (2012)[12]
- Air Force Office of Scientific Research - AFOSR Young Investigator Award[13]
