Materials Processing and Manufacturing
About This Grant
The MPM program supports fundamental research on the interrelationship of materials processing, structure, performance and process control.?? Analytical, experimental, and numerical studies are supported covering processing methods such as molding, forging, casting, welding, hydroforming, composite layup, and other materials processing approaches.?? Emphasis is placed on environmentally benign manufacturing and virtual manufacturing.?? Research leading to the development of novel processes and novel hybrid processing techniques to achieve net shape products and complex multi-scale, multi-functional products with superior quality and performance is also supported.
