I am incredibly honored and humbled by the TMS Fellow Award and very grateful for the support and contributions from my students and post-doctoral researchers at The Ohio State University and my former colleagues at General Motors. I also acknowledge TMS for being my professional home where I have enjoyed many collaborations and friendships with numerous mentors and colleagues from industry and academia. This award also gives me an opportunity to thank my family and especially my wife of 34 years for the greatest support to my hard work. I will strive to devote my best efforts to educate young engineers and innovate with them in materials science and processing technologies.
