Author Information

"Leszek A. Dobrzański, Prof, DSc, PhD, MSc, Eng, Hon. Prof., M Dr. HC is currently a full professor and the director of the Science Centre ASKLEPIOS of the Medical and Dental Engineering Centre for Research, Design and Production ASKLEPIOS Ltd in Gliwice, Poland, the president of the World Academy of Materials and Manufacturing Engineering, and the editor-in-chief of the “Journal of Achievements in Materials and Manufacturing Engineering,” “Archives of Materials Science and Engineering” and “Open Access Library.” From 1971 to 2017, he worked at the faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the Silesian University of Technology in Gliwice, Poland as a full professor, and among other, the vice-rector of the University, three times the dean of the faculty, and multiyear the director of the Institute. His published creative scientific output includes about 2,300 scientific publications and pertains to materials science, surface engineering, nanotechnology, biomaterials and bioengineering, computer-aided engineering materials design and modelling of their structure and properties. That scientific output includes close to 50 books and monographs and 50 chapters in books and monographs, 220 papers in English in journals covered in the Web of Science Core Collection, and 52 patents. He is a creator and leader of the Scientific School promoting by him personally of a group of 62 completed PhD theses and next PhD dissertations in progress, as well as promoting ca. 1000 MSc and BSc theses. Prof. M. Bamberger has an excellent international reputation in the field of materials engineering. He is chairman of the Casting and Solidification Committee of the Israel Metallurgical Society and a member of the Verein Deutscher Giessereifachleute and the TMS- Mg group. In 1996-2000 he served as the chairman of the scientific committee of the Consortium for the ""Development of Production and Finishing Processes of Magnesium Alloys"". Professor Bamberger's group works in the fields of development of new Mg alloys based on thermodynamic simulations as well as processing of materials and their simulation. Prof. Bamberger published 65 papers in Mg casting, solidification and phase stability. In the last 20 years Prof. Bamberger leads 30 projects funded by (among others) Israel Academy of Science, German Israel research foundation (GIF) and BMBF-Germany. George E. Totten, Ph.D, FASM, is the President and Founder of G.E. Totten & Associates, LLC, Seattle, Washington, USA. He has more than 31 years of experience in the heat treating and fluids/lubricants industry. His most recent work has focused on metalworking quenchants (heat treating), hydraulic fluids technology, and lubricant formulation and testing. Widely published, Dr. Totten has worked extensively within SAE International, ASM International, and ASTM International committees. He is also past president of the International Federation for Heat Treatment and Surface Engineering (IFHTSE)."
