Casey Foote's research for his MS in Mechanical Engineering is based on using the software available on the cluster to model a cold forging process. This model, paired with experimental data, will then be used to develop a tool to predict forging work piece cracking. The tool will provide a manufacturer of airfoils for use in the aircraft engine industry a method to rapidly develop new processing while avoiding costly physical trials.
