Adèle CARRADO

Dr. Adèle Carradò is a Full Professor in Solid State Physics at the University of Strasbourg (UNISTRA), affiliated with the Institute of Physics and Chemistry of Materials (IPCMS). Her research focuses on bioactive coatings, surface characterization of metallic and multi-layer systems, and mechanical properties of hybrid materials.

• PhD in Mechanics and Material Science (University of Reims, 2001)
• HDR (University of Strasbourg, 2004)
• Research Assistant (University of Ancona, 1997-1998)
• Post-doc (CEA Saclay, 2002)

Her work includes over 70 original articles, two patents, and 50+ invited lectures. She specializes in:

• Residual stress analysis via neutron and synchrotron radiation
• Functional thin films for biomedical applications
• Mechanical behavior of metal/polymer/metal systems
• 3-layered sandwich structures for lightweight design
• Zn-Mg alloys for orthopedic implants
• Surface grafting techniques for biomaterials

Recent publications highlight advancements in:

• Biodegradable Zn-Mg alloys with PMMA coatings
• ATUM-SEM for bone microstructure analysis
• Forming mechanics of steel-glass fiber-reinforced composites
• Residual stress optimization in extruded and drawn materials

She actively participates in international conferences and serves on executive committees for biomedical materials symposia.
