Qingyou Han's research focuses on metals and alloy processing, particularly how metals solidify, form defects, and can be strengthened through surface treatments. Recent work examines hot tearing (cracking that occurs during solidification of metals like steel and magnesium alloys), methods for bonding dissimilar metals in castings, and techniques such as ultrasonic shot peening and electrical pulsing to improve the wear resistance and strength of steel components used in bearings and gears.
