How many scientists can say that their work they started 30 years ago helped revolutionize the aerospace industry? UES scientists can. In collaboration with AFRL, they have been integral in developing and understanding Titanium Aluminides (TiAl) and Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMCs). TiAl is now used routinely in aircraft engines, and CMCs have recently been inserted into service in commercial aircraft. UES scientists continue working on CMCs by identifying and developing new materials and processing methodologies and using a combination of experiments and modeling approaches to extend the life of CMCs under extreme environments.
