Peter M. Anderson specializes in mechanical behavior of materials. He received his PhD from Harvard University in 1986 and was a post-doctoral researcher at Cambridge University (Cambridge, UK) until 1988, when he joined the MSE Department at Ohio State University. Over the past several years, his group has focused on computational modeling, synthesis, and characterization of deformation mechanisms and mechanical properties of multilayer thin films. He has been graduate thesis advisor to 20 students and has authored over 60 publications on the mechanical behaviour of inorganic and soft tissue.
