Martin L. Dunn is an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering. He received his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering in 1992 from the University of Washington. Prior to joining the faculty at the University of Colorado, he was a postdoctoral appointee at Sandia National Laboratories, and a design engineer at the Boeing Commercial Airplane Company. Professor Dunn's research interest include (1) the micromechanical behavior (fracture and deformation) of materials and structures for microelectronics and microelectromechanical systems applications, (ii) the mechanics and physics of heterogeneous media, including defects, polycrystals, and composites, with emphasis on peizoelectric solids, and (iii) the acoustic characterization of materials microstructure. His research is based on a strong coupling between theoretical and experimental efforts. Professor Dunn has published over 60 articles in refereed journals on these subjects and has been the principal or co-principal investigator on grants and contracts totaling in excess of $4.5 million during his tenure at the University of Colorado.
