معرفی
Joseph Farrell is a Lecturer in Materials Science at NTNU's Faculty of Engineering and Informatics, focusing on polymer nanocomposites for biomedical applications. His research develops novel materials for medical devices including antimicrobial urinary catheters and angioplasty balloons.
Research emphases:
- Nanoclay-polymer composites with enhanced properties
- Surface modification strategies for biomaterials
- Antimicrobial medical device coatings
- Structure-property relationships in polymers
- Finite element analysis of biomaterial performance
Farrell's publications demonstrate systematic approaches to optimizing material properties through nanoclay incorporation and surface functionalization. His catheter coating research integrates solubility parameter theory with experimental validation to develop infection-resistant surfaces. Recent work examines thermal and mechanical behavior of polyamide nanocomposites for balloon catheter applications.
