Prof Dr Bettina Camin explains the Kirkendall effect at "Wissen um 11"

In her lecture "Sherlock Holmes in materials technology" on 3 August at 11 a.m. at the Haus der Wissenschaft Bremen, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Bettina Camin will explain how high-resolution computer tomography can be used to detect microscopic damage inside components. Using the example of a turbine blade, she will demonstrate and explain the phenomenology of pore formation due to the Kirkendall effect using three-dimensional images.

Bettina Camin studied mechanical engineering and completed her doctorate in materials science. She has held the Chair of Materials Engineering at Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences since April 2022. She is head of the specialisation in Production Technology and Mechanical Engineering (ING-PRT) in the Engineering degree programme.

The lecture will take place in the Haus der Wissenschaft, Sandstraße 4/5 in 28195 Bremen. Registration is possible at: info@hausderwissenschaft.de
