Project title: The investigation of deformation mechanisms of Nb-Si-based alloys at elevated temperatures

My research examines how alloying additions and processing conditions influence phase constitution, microstructural evolution, and stability in complex structural alloys.

Joint project with KNB Plus, LLC.

I investigate oxidation mechanisms in advanced high-temperature alloys, with particular interest in how alloy chemistry affects oxide formation, scale stability, and degradation behavior across different temperature regimes.
