Dallis Ann Hardwick (deceased Jan 5 2014)
player
The metallurgist who co-invented a secret military superalloy, and the first link in a chain the engine follows.
Who they are
Dallis Ann Hardwick, an American metallurgist who led materials research at the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), who died January 5, 2014[1].[2]
What they do
She co-invented a nickel-based superalloy called Mondaloy used in advanced engines.
How it works
In the mid-1990s she co-invented Mondaloy with Monica Jacinto Reza at Rocketdyne, and both filed a 2010 patent. By 2005 she led all materials research for advanced gas-turbine engines, and her AFRL group was the government side of the cost-sharing contracts for the alloy. She retired in 2012 after a cancer diagnosis.
Why it matters
The engine treats her as the first person in a Hardwick-to-Reza-to-McCasland custody chain for Mondaloy, used as evidence within an existing pattern (not as a new standalone framework).
The engine's record — word for word
American metallurgist and AFRL Materials Directorate lead. Co-invented Mondaloy nickel-based superalloy with Monica Jacinto Reza at Rocketdyne in mid-1990s; both filed the 2010 patent (US20170082070A1). By 2005, Hardwick was leading all materials research for advanced gas turbine engines; her group, the AFRL Materials Directorate, served as the government side of the Mondaloy cost-sharing contracts. Retired 2012 after cancer diagnosis. Died January 5 2014. Engine treatment: 1st node in the Hardwick → Reza → McCasland chain-of-custody for Mondaloy (TCS Two-Tier Attrition Layer evidence pattern). NOT a separate 'Mondaloy Triangle' framework — engine canon TCS Two-Tier Permitted/Attrition Structure remains canonical; Hardwick chain is in-pattern evidence.
