  1. William Nix. Lee Otterson Professor in the School of Engineering, Emeritus. I have been engaged in the study of mechanical properties of materials for nearly 50 years. My early work was on high temperature creep and fracture of metals, focusing on techniques for measuring internal back stresses in deforming metals and featuring the modeling of ...

  3. Professor William D. Nix obtained his B.S. degree in Metallurgical Engineering from San Jose State College (1959), and his M.S. (1960) and Ph.D. (1963) degrees in Metallurgical Engineering and Materials Science, respectively, from Stanford University. He joined the faculty at Stanford in 1963 and was appointed Professor in 1972.

  5. Professor William Nix ForMemRS. William Nix has been engaged in the study of mechanical properties of materials in both bulk and thin film form for over six decades. He is especially well-known for his later work showing that size matters in strength and plasticity of metals and that 'smaller is stronger'.
