BIOGRAPHY:
Professor Sastry has over 37 years of experience in the physical metallurgy and deformation of structural materials, and advanced materials processing. As a visiting scientist at the Air Force Materials Laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base from 1974 to 1976, Professor Sastry was a key research investigator in the pioneering work of the development of titanium aluminides for high performance gas turbine engine applications. From 1977 to 1991, Professor Sastry worked at McDonnell Douglas Research Laboratories (MDRL) in St. Louis. As the group leader and program director of Metals and Composites research team at MDRL, Professor Sastry developed several high performance light weight alloys for aircraft applications. He introduced the use of super plastic forming processing maps for near net shape fabrication of aircraft structural components. For his contributions in the field of structural materials, Professor Sastry was honored with MDC Fellow Award in 1990. Professor Sastry has been a professor at Washington University since 1991.
