Reliability of materials

Alloy & Microstructure

Our research is dedicated to developing next-generation high-performance alloys specifically engineered for aerospace applications. We employ an integrated, iterative feedback loop that seamlessly connects customized alloy design, multi-scale microstructural characterization, and comprehensive mechanical property evaluation.

By utilizing advanced analytical tools such as Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD), we investigate the microstructural evolution of alloys from the macro to the nano scale. This in-depth structural analysis is continuously cross-referenced with empirical mechanical data. By feeding these insights back into the initial design phase, we refine alloy compositions and processing parameters—such as casting, extrusion, and heat treatment—to achieve superior material performance that meets the rigorous demands of the aerospace industry.

  • Customized Alloy Design: Designing advanced alloys tailored to specific mission-critical requirements.

  • Multi-scale Characterization: Identifying microstructural features and crystallographic orientations using OM, SEM, EBSD, and TEM.

  • Mechanical Property Evaluation: Assessing structural integrity through tensile testing, hardness measurements, and fracture analysis.

  • Iterative Feedback Optimization: Refining the "Process-Structure-Property" relationship through a continuous feedback system to ensure optimal material performance.
