has nearly a decade of widespread experiences on both the computational and experimental fatigue behavior of metallic materials, and specifically fatigue of friction stir welding. Dr. Allison is also pioneering computational and experimental research on the MELD solid-state additive manufacturing process, and is involved in characterizing the structure-property-processing relations of a variety of material systems to support basic and applied research projects. Dr. Allison has published over 80 refereed journal articles, book chapters, technical reports and conference papers on these and similar areas. Professionally, Dr. Allison organized the first MELD User Group Meeting and Workshop in 2018, and he has also been involved in organizing symposiums and sessions at The Minerals, Metals, & Materials Society (TMS) annual meetings, Nanotechnology for Defense, the Society of Experimental Mechanics annual meeting, and ASME conferences. He serves on multiple technical committees for TMS, and is the ASME Constitutive Equations technical committee secretary. Prior to joining The University of Alabama, Dr. Allison performed research at the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), where he received the US Army ERDC - Research and Development Achievement Award for 2013 and 2014, the 2014 Department of the Army Commander’s Award for Civilian Service, the 2011 Department of the Army Achievement Medal for Civilian Service, and the 2013 Department of the Army Research & Development Achievement Award for Technical Excellence. Recently, Dr. Allison was a finalist for The University of Alabama President’s Faculty Research Award (2017).view less
