Lab group members Brooke, Quentin, Lin, and Erin will conduct pioneering in situ synchrotron thermomechanical experiments on additively manufactured high-temperature nickel alloys with our collaborators from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Argonne National Laboratory (ANL).
Our international collaboration with DLR and ANL that started with a summer research experience for the UCF team in Germany continues to develop with the continuation of in situ synchrotron measurements. The experiments conducted at the 1-ID beamline of the Advanced Photon Source, will capture the strain evolution in additively manufactured materials under operational environments comparable to engines.
