DANIEL PALACIOS

RESEARCH FOCUS Daniel is developing process windows for wire and powder L-DED systems and comparing mechanical properties of parts made with both systems. He is a master’s student in the lab working on developing process windows for both wire and laser directed energy deposition processes. Prior to joining the lab, he worked as an Automation […]
NATHANIEL LIES

RESEARCH FOCUS Nathaniel’s research focuses on the use of directed energy deposition additive manufacturing of molybdenum and its alloys. He works on all parts of the alloy development from alloy additions to processing parameters, and most of his funding and research is focused on aerospace applications.
EMMELINE EVANS

RESEARCH FOCUS Emmeline is working on developing multimodal ultrasonic testing for in-situ use during manufacturing of high-temperature ceramic and refractory alloy parts.
TYLER KNAPP

RESEARCH FOCUS Tyler is studying the dynamic compression/shock response of advanced NiTiHf alloys, and also working on developing automated and high throughput data analysis methods to enable the ability for artificial intelligence (A.I.) to discover and optimize new shape memory alloys and their manufacturing in the future.
DYLAN KENNEDY

RESEARCH FOCUS Dylan is working on enabling additive manufacturing of NiTi and NiTiHf shape memory alloys, and also working on developing automated data informatics algorithms and tools to enable the ability for artificial intelligence (A.I.) to discover and optimize new shape memory alloys and their manufacturing in the future.
