UD Center For Composite Materials proudly celebrates Dr. Tania Lavaggi on the successful defense of her doctoral dissertation

Apr 13, 2026

Her research, “Permeability of Carbon-Carbon Composites for the Improvement of Its Densification Process,” advances our understanding of transport properties during polymer infiltration and pyrolysis (PIP). By integrating experimental work, microstructure-informed simulations, and predictive modeling, her work helps enable more efficient and optimized composite manufacturing of carbon-carbon composites.

A special thank you to her committee:
Dr. Suresh Advani (Chair), Dr. John Gillespie, Dr. Valery Roy, and Dr. Mark Mirotznik

We’re excited to see the continued impact of her work in advanced composites. Wishing her all the best in this next chapter!
