Research to determine the properties and characteristics of Metallic alloys (all types including Intermetallics), Metal matrix composites (all types of MMCs), and materials used as Fibre and Particulate reinforcements in MMCs. Microstructural analysis of all types of samples, as-prepared, heat treated or fractured. Research leading to improved processes for making novel Metallic alloys or MMCs and new processes for shaping metallic materials, such as casting, powder, vapour deposition, forging, superplastic forming, etc., for applications in all service environments. Includes research to develop material modelling to improve alloy design and understand alloy behaviour.
