1. Advanced Alloys and Composites for the Aerospace and Automotive Industry :

Porfessor Michael. D. Sangid School of Aeronautics and Astronautics

E-mail: msangid@purdue.edu)

Research website: • https://engineering.purdue.edu/~msangid/

• The research we do is building relationships between the material's microstructure and the subsequent performance of the material, in terms of fatigue, fracture, creep, delamination, corrosion, plasticity, etc.

• The majority of our group’s work has been on advanced alloys and composites. Both material systems have direct applications in Aerospace and Automotive Engineering, as we work closely with these industries.

• This research includes microstructural-sensitive modeling and in situ experiments. Include advanced materials testing, using state-of-the-art 3d strain mapping, and characterization. This research lies at the confluence of materials science, solid mechanics, and manufacturing.

• Specific projects look at increasing the structural integrity of additive manufactured materials, increasing fidelity of lifing analysis to introduce new light weight materials into applications, and working within the forging process to tailor material properties from location to location within components.

2. Materials for High Energy Generation Efficiency : Porfessor Michael. D. Sangid

School of Aeronautics and Astronautics

E-mail: msangid@purdue.edu)

Research website:

• https://engineering.purdue.edu/~msangid/

• Research in our group focuses on structure to property relationships, in the form of in situ micromechanical experiments and microstructure-based modeling to allow higher fidelity lifing analysis and the design of new advanced materials with higher temperature and strength capabilities.

• In many applications, it is the material choices that restrict the energy efficiency of the system’s cycle. For instance, in gas turbine engines and nuclear systems, operations at higher temperatures result in an increase in efficiency. Further, polycrystalline materials dominate the infrastructure for the transportation industry. Even incremental improvements in tailored material’s properties can result in higher allowable stress levels, thus removing weight from the overall systems and thereby having an economic impact in the range of billions per year in increased fuel efficiency.

3. Design and Assessment of Multifunctional Coatings for Ablation and Emissivity Performance :

Porfessor Rodney Trice School of Materials Engineering E-mail: rtrice@purdue.edu)

Research website: • https://engineering.purdue.edu/MSE/People/ptProfile?id=11252

• Hypersonic vehicles require sharp featured nose tips and wing leading edges to reduce drag on the vehicle. One approach to reducing the temperature in these components, often as high as 2000oC, is to increase the emissivity of the surface, affording more re-radiation of the incoming heat.

• In the Trice Research Group we have developed a Sm3+-doped SiC/ZrB2 coating system that not only demonstrated an emissivity of 0.9 at 1600oC, but also increased ablation resistance compared to an undoped SiC/ZrB2 coating. These coatings have the potential to dramatically increase the lifetime or range of hypersonic aircraft by reducing the amount of damage done to control surfaces when covered with this protective coating.

•

•

We propose experiments to design multifunctional coatings for re-entry applications that combine high emissivity with ablation resistance. Experimental studies will focus on:

1)Evaluating the effect of microstructural features (porosity size and shape, rare-earth dopant concentration and type, density and surface roughness) on emissivity and ablation performance. Research papers to date include the following:

• The goal of the proposed research is to investigate the role played by grain boundary level deformation on the overall mechanical response of metallic (Ni) thin films at high temperatures.

• The aim of the proposed research is to separate and to quantify the grain and grain boundary level contributions to the overall mechanical strength of thin films using a combination of in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) quantitative measurements and modeling based on combined molecular simulations and cohesive crystal plasticity finite element (CCPFE) method.

5. BioFuel Interactions with Hot Structures in Gas Turbines : Porfessor Rodney Trice School of Materials Engineering E-mail: rtrice@purdue.edu)

Research website: • https://engineering.purdue.edu/MSE/People/ptProfile?id=11252

• The gas turbine engine is the most importance for generating electrical power and/or thrust. The hot sections of gas turbines are typically comprised of superalloy turbine blades. Both the superalloy blades and TBC can be attacked by corrosive species found in the fuel and environment.

• Uncoated metal regions, are particularly susceptible to Na2SO4 corrosion. In addition to Na2SO4, Ca-Mg-Al silicates or CMAS can be ingested into the gas turbine from volcanic ash or sandy particulate and can melt and infiltrate into a porous coating.

• Hot corrosion of blades and coatings can result in the loss of engine efficiency and increased downtime for maintenance, which can add substantially to the overall cost to maintain an aircraft. Looking ahead, many gas turbine users are considering switching to aviation fuels containing a mixture of up to 50 vol.% biofuels. This change has the potential to create new challenges for the gas turbine users.

5. BioFuel Interactions with Hot Structures in Gas Turbines : Porfessor Rodney Trice

School of Materials Engineering E-mail: rtrice@purdue.edu)

• The contaminants found in various biofuels are known to include oxides of alkali and alkaline earth metals including calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, along with sulfur, phosphorus and silicon oxides.

• During combustion, an inorganic ash may be left behind. The type of impurity found in the biofuel will be significantly affected by the source of the biomass.

• First of all, It will be absolutely essential to understand the interplay between the biomass source and impurity type. Second, while CMAS is typically ingested as particulate in middle-east theaters or from volcanic ash, the impurity list includes the necessary elements to form CMAS without exposure to either of these two environments. Third, the presence of low temperature glass formers like P2O5 is disconcerting.

Any proposed study would require the following:

• 1. Identification of the impurities that will be found in the proposed biofuels with a specific understanding of the effect the biomass has on impurity type. Thus, we would work with biofuel manufacturers to isolate these impurities and their concentrations in the biofuel.

• 2. Development of experimental approaches to evaluate multiple combinations of impurities in a single sample via combinatorial, high throughput approaches.

• 3. Evaluation of combinations of those impurities on superalloys, TBCs, etc., in representative environments and temperatures.

Techniques for the accurate application of a corrosive species have been developed at Purdue, along with the assembly of multiple tube furnaces that simulate corrosive environments that could be easily adapted for this study.

• The use of fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites (FR-PMC) in structural applications is growing at a rapid pace; the current 50 million pounds per year production of carbon is expected to growth at an annual rate between 13 and 16% in the coming years, to satisfy demand in automotive and renewable energy sectors. Despite of, we have only begun to “scratch the surface” of the potential of this class of materials.

• In this project we will combine molecular dynamics and phase field simulations to connect the molecular-level and microstructural processes that govern fracture toughness.

• Large-scale MD simulations will be used to characterize crack propagation in thermoset and thermoplastic polymers and to uncover and quantify the interplay between molecular processes and stress concentration in failure

• A predictive tool such as the one proposed here has the potential to lead to the design of improved polymers and composite microstructures for applications such as aerospace, automotive, and energy sectors.
