Congratulations to Dr. Liang! Zhiong “Richard” Liang was recently appointed Sprint Eminent Scholar Chair by John Thrasher, president of Florida State University.
Liang was chosen by a distinguished selection committee that reviewed several excellent nominations and unanimously selected him based on his international recognition in the fields of high-strength nanocomposites and scale-up manufacturing. They also were impressed by his scholarly leadership, demonstrated through his record of mentoring successful undergraduate and graduate students, generating patents and building strong industrial collaborations in his research fields.
Liang is a professor of industrial and manufacturing engineering at Florida State University and the FAMU FSU College of Engineering. He is also the director of the High-Performance Materials Institute at FSU that is closely associated with the college.

Rebekah Sweat, assistant professor of industrial and manufacturing engineering and faculty at the High-Performance Materials Institute (HPMI) recently established a partnership with Siemens that made her a Siemens Academic Partner. In addition, she was awarded a large in-kind grant of industrial-strength software and curriculum to support classroom instruction and real-world applications. 💪The software server is located in the Center for Optimization of Material Performance with Adaptive and Smart Simulation (COMPASS) lab, which contains 30 seats of the Siemens software, including MultiMechanics, providing the ability to couple the macro and micro-scales in digital twin multi-scale simulations. This grant will be used in Sweat’s research group at the COMPASS lab to increase the predictive ability of models focused on techniques to more rapidly develop new composite materials. 👉The software will be an integral part of the instruction in the Materials by Design course starting in Spring 2021.
