3-D Mesoscale Imaging of Turbine Runner Alloys

In the project, we will use an advanced microscope instrument, called a plasma focused ion beam to image the three dimensional structure of turbine materials used to generate hydroelectric power, with the aim of design a method for predicting damage and maintenance schedules in the long term. If we can understand the microstructure of these steels, we can figure out how they will deform over the long term.
