International researcher team presents a novel microstructure design strategy for lean medium-manganese steels with optimized properties in the journal Science
Understanding the deformation mechanisms observed in high performance materials, such as superalloys, allows us to design strategies for the development of materials exhibiting enhanced performance. In this project, we focus on the combination of structural information gained from electron microscopy and compositional measurements from atom probe…
This project aims to develop a micromechanical metrology technique based on thin film deposition and dewetting to rapidly assess the dynamic thermomechanical behavior of multicomponent alloys. This technique can guide the alloy design process faster than the traditional approach of fabrication of small-scale test samples using FIB milling and…
Understanding hydrogen-microstructure interactions in metallic alloys and composites is a key issue in the development of low-carbon-emission energy by e.g. fuel cells, or the prevention of detrimental phenomena such as hydrogen embrittlement. We develop and test infrastructure, through in-situ nanoindentation and related techniques, to study…
Smaller is stronger” is well known in micromechanics, but the properties far from the quasi-static regime and the nominal temperatures remain unexplored. This research will bridge this gap on how materials behave under the extreme conditions of strain rate and temperature, to enhance fundamental understanding of their deformation mechanisms. The…
