Dr. Yi Xie is an Assistant Professor in the School of Nuclear Engineering at Purdue University. Prior to joining Purdue, she was the inaugural Glenn T. Seaborg Distinguished Post-Doctoral Fellow and the Staff working at Idaho National Laboratory. Her research areas include materials degradation mechanisms in extreme environments. She investigated the stress corrosion cracking of stainless steel in the used nuclear fuel dry storage canister environment. She conducted corrosion tests using static and stress corrosion systems and electrochemical corrosion techniques. She also designed and developed multiple, complex corrosion test systems, one of which is a high-temperature and -pressure dynamic corrosion system that can measure the crack propagation rate and monitor and control the water chemistry, temperature, and pressure in situ. Prof. Xie is the Virtual Labs Faculty Fellow and Paul Zmola Scholar at Purdue University. She has more than 50 peer-reviewed journal articles (Corrosion Science, Journal of Nuclear Materials, Materials Characterization, etc.) and conference papers. She is a member of ANS and The Minerals Metals and Materials society (TMS). Prof. Xie is the Symposium Organizer and Session Chair of TMS 2023 and 2024 Meetings. She is an active technical reviewer for 10+ journals, U.S. DOE CINR/SBIR/RTE programs, and U.S. NRC UNLP and Scholarship Grant.
