Dr. Kasemer’s research interests lie primarily in developing, implementing, and utilizing computational models to predict the deformation response of metals subjected to loading, with a specific focus on polycrystalline structural alloys. Results from computational modeling lend insight into the evolution of the elastic and plastic deformation responses at both the crystal scale and the sample scale, and the fundamental micromechanical mechanisms governing this behavior. This allows for a better understanding of the relationship between microstructure and the attendant mechanical properties of the material.
