Knowledge-driven alloy design

We develop novel metallurgical materials with specific compositional sensitivities—discovering new compositions, properties, and microstructures via systematic methods that identify relevant material groups and the suitable compositions/microstructures for innovative systems. We analyze key design-impacting properties including thermodynamics, kinetics, dislocation characteristics, interfaces, and phase-transformation behaviors to ensure performance and functionality.

Expert witness & evidence

Our corrosion and metallurgy experts provide specialized advice and expert-witness testimony, backed by in-house testing. In product or component-liability disputes, we deliver litigation support by presenting validated metallurgical evidence and expert testimony in court.

1) Discovery

• Define objectives, constraints, and standards to meet.

2) Assessment

• Review materials, processes, and design risks.

3) Plan

• Roadmap for troubleshooting, testing, and improvements.

4) Validate

• Back recommendations with in-house tests and documentation.
