Research Interest
Our group uses novel experimental, analytical, and computational tools to explore materials with extreme properties or under extreme conditions, particularly for metallic materials. Our research includes metals, mechanics, and manufacturing (3Ms), and covers many length and time scales. Among our research areas of interest are: high-entropy alloys, nanomechanics, and laser metal additive manufacturing. Of particular interest is to advance the fields of vital importance to the society, including aerospace, biomedical, electronic, environment, and energy sectors.
