Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, process science of laser powder bed fusion, directed energy deposition, wire arc additive manufacturing, and cold spray; in-situ monitoring, sensing, and data-driven control; residual stress, fatigue, and qualification and certification of printed materials; printability-driven and compositionally complex alloys and printable ceramics; multi-material and functionally graded deposition across dissimilar metals, ceramics, and polymer hybrid composites; sustainable manufacturing with recycled and bio-derived feedstocks; and design for additive manufacturing, from architected materials and metamaterials to micro- and nanoscale fabrication. These platforms are matched by campus characterization capability spanning the full process-structure-property chain: electron backscatter diffraction and EDS on a Magellan 400 XHR-SEM, analytical TEM with EELS and electron tomography, SAXS/WAXS/GIXRD alongside ambient and high-temperature X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, Raman and FTIR spectroscopy, and scanning probe microscopy.
