| Elizabeth Urig is a senior materials engineer working in metallurgy and advanced manufacturing within the Advanced Materials and Processing Branch. She is a current PhD candidate in Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Virginia and holds degrees in Materials Science from the University of Virginia (MS), in addition to Mechanical Engineering (BE) and Applied Mathematics (BS) from Youngstown State University. Elizabeth’s work at LaRC has centered on the Electron Beam Freeform Fabrication (EBF3) systems and tangent technologies, as well as advanced cold-working spin and flow forming. Her research topics have centered around computational materials, topology optimized design, metallurgy, finite element modeling, additive manufacturing, mechanical behavior, and soft magnetic materials. She is currently working on developing a predictive finite element model of flow forming and in-situ control of wire-based electron beam additive manufacturing. |
