Abstract of Dr. Beaudoin's talk and full bio:  http://bit.ly/beaudoin-colloquium

Professor Stephen P. Beaudoin has spent his research career working on problems related to how particles and powders adhere to surfaces. Some of the applications of that work have been in ultraclean manufacturing of microelectronics, while others have centered on pharmaceutical processing. Recently, the focus has turned toward understanding the adhesion of explosives for applications in detection of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and for improving the performance of munitions. 

Stephen P. Beaudoin is a Professor in the Davidson School of Chemical Engineering at Purdue University, where he also serves as the Academic Director, Teaching and Learning Technology, and as the Director of the Purdue Energetics Research Center (PERC). He received his B.S. from MIT in 1988, his M.S. from the University of Texas at Austin in 1990, and his Ph.D. from North Carolina State University in 1995. All of his degrees are in Chemical Engineering.
