Ashton J. Egan

Ashton J. Egan's research focuses on high-temperature metal alloys, particularly nickel-based and cobalt-nickel-based superalloys used in demanding applications like jet engines and power generation turbines. A key focus is understanding and engineering microscopic phase transformations to improve how these materials resist deformation (creep) and maintain strength at extreme temperatures. This work combines materials characterization with mechanistic studies to push the temperature limits of alloys used in high-stress environments.

Publication output has been variable but sustained over the last decade, with no activity before 2019 followed by fluctuating annual counts (peaking at 5 publications in 2020 and 2024) and an average of about 2.4 papers per year over the last five years.
