Computed tomography (CT) has transformed fields by enabling non-destructive three-dimensional (3D) imaging. However, conventional CT is fundamentally limited by acquisition speed: high-quality 3D reconstruction typically requires thousands of X-ray radiographs acquired over a full specimen rotation, taking minutes to hours. This makes CT unsuitable for fast, transient phenomena such as additive manufacturing, impact, fracture and high-rate deformation.
Professor Ares Rosakis, Theodore von Karman Professor of Aeronautics and Mechanical Engineering, was formally inducted as a Foreign Member to the Royal Society in a ceremony held on July 10, 2026. His 2024 election marked the first time a Caltech professor of mechanics and of mechanical engineering was elected to the Royal Society.
