Research summary
AI-generated

Yunzhi Wang's research focuses on understanding and engineering the microstructure of metallic alloys, particularly superalloys and shape memory alloys, to improve their strength and performance at high temperatures or under mechanical stress. Work includes studying phase transformations (changes in atomic arrangement), defect structures, and precipitation (formation of small particles within a material) using both computational modeling and experimental characterization. The publication record also includes some titles in unrelated fields (e.g., biology, optics), which may reflect database attribution issues rather than this PI's core research.
