The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Michigan Technological University (MTU) to develop processes to rapidly screen and test novel alloy materials for use in high temperature systems (e.g. power generation applications). MTU would develop machine learning algorithms to aid in the optimization of alloy design. Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) and rapid characterization techniques would then be applied to the fabrication process. Laboratory-scale alloy samples would be produced and characterized via this methodology.
