Dr. Hua is a staff scientist at Idaho National Laboratory with research interests in multi-scale thermal and acoustic transport phenomena of solid materials in extreme environment. He is currently involved in multiple laser-based thermal and mechanical property characterizations of pre- and post-irradiation materials, and contributes to the development and maintenance of state-of-art characterization techniques and INL-developed instruments, such as Thermal Conductivity Microscope (TCM) and Material Properties Microscope (MPM). He contributes to the laser-based thermal conductivity characterization of unirradiated and irradiated Th1-xUxO2 and U-Zr alloys in TETI (EFRC). Dr. Hua received his doctorate in mechanical engineering at the Utah State University in 2013, and a bachelor’s in materials science and engineering at the Tsinghua University (China) in 2007.
