Materials and Surface Engineering
About This Grant
The MSE program supports fundamental research leading to a better understanding of the effect of microstructure, surfaces and coatings on the properties and performance of engineering materials, and the ultimate control of these properties through material design.?? Of particular interest is materials service under conditions such as impact, temperature extremes, corrosion, oxidation, and friction.?? The program also supports research leading to biomedical applications of materials. ??Funded research includes both experimental and theoretical approaches.
