- Profile
-
I am an internationally recognised leader in ferrous physical metallurgy and thermomechanical processing, with more than 35 years of experience. I have conducted research in association with many national and international companies from a wide variety of sectors including automotive, aerospace, construction, transportation and energy, including nuclear and most recently fusion. I have been a collaborator with the National Physical Laboratory on the development of Guides for Best Practice of High Temperature Testing, and has published >170 scientific papers in high impact journals. I have been the recipient of the IOM3 Charles Hatchett Award, and most recently been presented with the 2024 Tom Colclough Medal by the IOM3 in recognition of my contributions to the understanding of microstructure, mechanical properties and processing in the iron and steel industry.
- Research interests
-
My research involves the microstructural evolution (utilising experimental techniques together with modelling techniques), and the subsequent development of mechanical properties during the thermomechanical processing of both ferrous and nonferrous alloys. In my research, a wide range of mechanical tests are employed, including laboratory simulations of industrial metalworking processes, e.g. rolling, forging, extrusion etc.
Additionally, this research relies upon the quantitative characterisation of microstructure using a number of different techniques including light, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. This work has led to empirical relationships between deformation processing parameters (e.g., temperature, strain, strain rate and interpass delay time) and the resultant microstructure for a given alloy composition. Although a number of alloy systems including aluminium alloys, metal matrix composites (MMCs), titanium aluminides and permanent magnetic materials have been studied, the focus is primarily on ferrous alloys such as stainless, microalloyed steels and associated model alloy steels.
My work on the thermodynamic behaviour of NbC, and of its subsequent precipitation behaviour in microalloyed austenite has been recognised internationally, with the award of the Charles Hatchett Prize from the Institute of Materials (1995). I am particularly interested in developing a basic understanding between those softening (i.e., recovery, recrystallisation) and strengthening (i.e., solid solution, precipitation) mechanisms which occur either in austenite or in ferrite.
