Jinghao Xu

Principal Research Engineer

As a principal research engineer I am specializing in material manufacturing, mechanical properties, and characterization. My work focuses on mechanical testing under static/cyclic loads at various temperatures for engineering materials.

Specializing in material manufacturing, mechanical properties, and characterization

As a researcher my research focus are electron beam powder bed fusion and nickel-based superalloys for additive manufacturing, advancing material performance and reliability.

Research

Novel materials design for defect free additive manufacturing of difficult to weld Ni-based alloys.

MADAM

3D printing has almost unlimited design flexibility, and has the potential to revolutionize the manufacturing industry. However, the number of suitable alloys are limited. This research project aims to develop superalloys, tailored for 3D printing.

Additive manufacturing

3D-printing will have a huge impact on the manufacturing industry in the years to come, and a better understanding of the material properties of AM manufactured parts is vital to fully utilize the potential of this fairly new technology.

Profile area - Materials Science for Sustainable Technologies

The Materials Science for Sustainable Technologies initiative includes cutting-edge international research with great potential for further development. This area combines the research areas of materials science and circular economy in new ways.
