Michael J. Mills

Michael J. Mills studies the microstructure and mechanical behavior of high-performance metal alloys, including nickel-base superalloys, shape memory alloys like nickel-titanium, and high-entropy alloys. His work combines advanced materials characterization techniques (such as high-energy diffraction microscopy and 3D imaging) with mechanical testing to understand how these materials deform, creep, and fail under extreme temperatures and stresses, with applications in areas like jet engine components, additive manufacturing, and shape memory devices.

Publication output has remained fairly steady over the past decade, with year-to-year fluctuations but no clear long-term decline, averaging about 12 publications per year over the last five years.
