Philip Clark
Professor
of Materials
Systems and Engineering
Systems
Co-Lead, Engineering
Design and Advanced Manufacturing
(EDAM) Focus Area, MIT
Portugal Program
Dr.
Clark holds an Sc.D. from MIT. His
current research involves analysis
of the relationship between technology
and economics in materials industries.
The
long term objectives of Dr. Clark’s
research are twofold: (1) to establish
a comprehensive and consistent framework
for analyzing the markets for minerals
over the next 10-20 years, and the
costs of supplying these markets,
(2) to apply this framework to the
study of the dynamic behavior of supply,
demand, and prices in specific materials
markets.
Dr.
Clark aims to create a framework that
can answer questions such as: How
will the future costs and properties
of new materials affect the competitive
positions of existing materials industries,
and how will they impact end use markets?;
What would be the likely supply and
demand responses in the event of significant
supply or price disruptions and/or
cartel actions?
