Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Ashok Saxena's research focuses on materials science, with a particular emphasis on the mechanical properties and performance of alloys under various conditions. His work includes investigating creep crack growth in advanced alloys such as Alloy 247LC-DS, and developing phenomenological models to describe creep and creep-fatigue crack growth behavior in ferritic steels. Saxena also studies the engineering of pressure vessels, including the estimation of autofrettage pressure and residual stresses, and the design of durable, low-cost vessels for bulk hydrogen storage, addressing challenges like hydrogen embrittlement.

His publications span topics from material fatigue and fracture mechanics to the physics of planetary motion. Saxena's research contributions are reflected in his h-index of 36 and over 5,000 citations across more than 200 publications. He has recently been active in research related to high-pressure hydrogen storage vessel designs and the effects of hold time on fatigue crack growth in high-temperature alloys.
