Advisory: Florida Tech Classes Canceled, Offices Closed Tuesday, Nov. 3

All Florida Tech classes and university activities are canceled and all offices will remain closed Tuesday, Nov. 3, as campus cleans up buildings impacted from severe weather. Note that power has not yet been restored to all parts of campus. Additionally, water pressure appears low; as a precautionary measure, it is advisable to boil water before ingesting.

Only identified essential employees contacted by their supervisors should report to campus Tuesday. All residential students should limit their activities.

All normal operations, including classes, are anticipated to resume Wednesday, Nov. 4. Watch official university communications channels for updates.

Expertise

Microstructure-Property-Processing Relationships, Shape Memory Materials, Additive Manufacturing, High Entropy Alloys

Personal Overview

Dr. Saedi's research focuses on the design, processing, and experimental characterization of advanced materials, with an emphasis on understanding process–structure–property relationships and their effects on mechanical and functional performance. His work spans shape memory and smart materials, high-entropy and high-temperature alloys, additively manufactured metals, and architected materials. He also applies data-driven and machine-learning approaches to predict material behavior and guide the design of new functional alloys.

Dr. Saedi has authored numerous peer-reviewed publications and a book chapter on characterization techniques for shape memory alloys. His research has been supported by federal and state agencies, and he is a recipient of the NSF CAREER Award.
