Exploring a better understanding of the metallurgical processing and mechanical characterization of nitinol for use in biomedical and aerospace applications
Provides expert staff and specialized analytical equipment to solve materials characterization challenges encountered in education, research and industry.
Applies materials technology to real-life applications and develops new materials for extreme environmental conditions. Research at ECG is focused on processing-structure-property relationships in electronic ceramics. There are two thrusts (1) Energy conversion and storage materials and (2) 2D behavior.
Creates experimental techniques to develop a physical understanding of processing-structure-property relationships of crystalline and amorphous materials
