This $300,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will fund the development of new metallic materials for high-temperature applications critical to improving the efficiency of jet engines and turbines. The grant recipient, The Ohio State University, will work with collaborators at NASA Glenn Research Center, GE Aerospace, and the Air Force Research Laboratory to utilize a novel additive manufacturing approach to create oxide dispersion strengthened superalloys with exceptional high-temperature properties. The project will generate new knowledge about the relationship between the additive manufacturing processing, alloy microstructure, and mechanical behavior of these advanced materials. A machine learning framework will be employed to optimize the materials' design for applications in both intermediate/high-temperature and extreme-temperature regimes. The grant also includes a subaward to the University of Michigan, where Professor Emmanuelle Marquis will lead oxidation testing and characterization efforts. This research aims to advance critical aerospace and power generation technologies while offering opportunities for student research experiences targeting underrepresented groups.
