The MONSTER Research Group is thrilled to announce that Dr. Tori Miller has been awarded the Vladimir A. Grodsky Professorship in the Materials Science & Engineering Department at UF! This prestigious recognition honors Dr. Miller’s sustained performance and excellence in research,… Read More
Yonguk Lee recently published “On the Formation of Multiply Coherent γ Grains in a Powder Metallurgy Ni Base Superalloy” in the Superalloys 2024 proceedings. The paper reports a unique γ microstructure which contains multiple pinning particles inside that are coherent (multiply coherent gamma grains,… Read More

Yonguk Lee recently published “Prevalence of Heteroepitaxial Recrystallization in the Low Solvus High Refractory (LSHR) γ–γ′ Superalloy” in Metallography, Microstructure, and Analysis. The paper reports the observation of HeRX outside of low-misfit Ni-base superalloys for the first time, which suggests… Read More
