David Asquith

Dr Asquith graduated with a degree in Engineering Physics in 2001 and shortly after studied for an MPhil in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Sheffield University (2004). In 2008, he did a PhD in the department of Materials Science, also at the University of Sheffield. Both projects studied surface engineered aluminium with synchrotron diffraction to understand fatigue performance. After finishing his studies, David worked as a Post-Doc. at the University of Sheffield on a variety of experimental mechanics projects in the Mechanical Engineering department. David joined Sheffield Hallam University as a Lecturer in 2010 and now he is a Senior Lecturer in Aerospace Engineering and part of the Materials and Engineering Research Institute (MERI).
