UDRI Advanced High-Temperature Materials researchers engage in the characterization, life prediction, and testing of ceramic and refractory materials. We can evaluate the strength, fracture, fatigue, ...

This reality has motivated fundamental research into a new class of materials known as Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics (UHTC). These materials exhibit a unique combination of refractory and ...

Several aspects of materials and manufacturing, especially the ability of materials to operate with predictable behaviors in high-temperature environments, pose particular challenges. To illuminate ...

At the core of the project is a newly developed solid unidirectional composite tape (UD tape) that aims to bring together the ...
