Research interests:

• Experimental formability characterization of advanced high strength aluminum and steel alloys under warm and hot stamping conditions using digital image correlation (DIC) techniques.
• Constitutive characterization of advanced high strength sheet alloys using DIC techniques from room temperature to ~900°C.
• The study of initial temper effects on the formability and final strength of precipitation hardenable aluminum alloys in warm forming processes.
• Application of finite element modelling techniques to temperature dependent forming processes.
