Rate My Professor Nick Green

Professor Green's research specializations include solidification and shape casting, enabling technologies for high integrity and high performance castings, fundamental materials characterisation, solidification science, computational process modelling, and manufacturing technologies for future generation aero engine turbine components. Notable publications comprise "On the Assessment and Rationalisation of Heterogeneous Nucleation in Investment Cast Superalloys" (2026, Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A), "The Manufacturing and Experimental Validation of a Nickel Superalloy Double-Wall, Effusion Test Specimen" (2024, Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power), "C. Reilly, N.R. Green, et al., The present state of modeling entrainment defects in the shape casting process" (2013, Applied Mathematical Modelling), "N.J. Humphreys et al., Modelling and validation: Casting of Al and TiAl alloys" (2013, Applied Mathematical Modelling), "Y.Z. Zhou et al., Mechanism of competitive grain growth in directional solidification of a nickel-base superalloy" (2008, Acta Materialia), and "N.R. Green and J. Campbell, Statistical distributions of fracture strengths of cast Al-7Si-Mg alloy" (1993, Materials Science and Engineering: A). As Principal Academic Investigator on the ARCANE Prosperity Partnership and holder of the RAEng Research Chair (2023-2028), he leads projects funded by EPSRC, Rolls-Royce, and others, contributing significantly to nickel-based superalloys and advanced manufacturing. The University of Birmingham's collaboration with Rolls-Royce, involving the HTRC, received a Queen's Anniversary Prize in 2024.
