Biography
Eugenio Zapata-Solvas has completed his Ph.D. studies on the role of grain boundaries in the plasticity of advanced ceramics at the University of Seville in 2008. Then, he carried out postdoctoral studies about physical and chemical properties of UHTCs at Imperial College London and about flash sintering of advanced ceramics at the University of Oxford. He is currently a research fellow from the Materials Science Institute of Seville working on high temperature physical properties of UHTCs and new technologies for ceramics sintering. He has published more than 20 papers in indexed journals.
