The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $410,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program to Cornell University. The purpose of this 3-year grant, awarded on October 1, 2025 and completing by September 30, 2028, is to conduct in-situ studies of supersonic impact-induced erosion in ultrafine-grained and nanocrystalline metals. The research aims to understand the key hardening and softening mechanisms that govern deformation localization under high strain rates, which is critical for designing new erosion-resistant materials for applications in national defense, aerospace, automotive, and energy industries. The project also includes an educational component to strengthen the STEM pipeline and enhance national competitiveness.
