Steeling the show - creating exceptional alloys of iron : the inaugural lecture of Harry Bhadeshia

[@a.beyzade4676]

It was a pleasure to take part in your Phase Transformations class Professor! I was the student you mentioned at 24:00!

[@bhadeshia123]

First of all, I am absolutely delighted that you enjoyed the course, and indeed, that you took the trouble to comment here. You can see that you made both Haixue and I incredibly happy when you approached us. I wish you all the best, Harry

[@abhradeepdas3889]

It's always a pleasure to learn from you. You are absolutely amazing. Being a researcher and working in the field of additively manufactured steel, I learn a lot from you.

[@bhadeshia123]

Thank you so much for the lovely words. Additive manufacturing of steel components is a good research field with many challenges, so well done.

Thanks for sharing. This refreshes our memory of your wonderful talk on February 8.

[@bhadeshia123]

Thank you very much, you are more than welcome.

[@calebschenck4493]

Wonderful talk! I remember seeing you for the first time at IMAT 2022 in New Orleans. I will send your regards to John Speer today, in fact! Hope I can meet you again one day :)

[@bhadeshia123]

Thank you so much. The New Orleans meeting was great, and my first time there. Best regards, Harry

Your videos on ferrous metallurgy are some of my most useful resources in the field, as an R&D metallurgist for an international manufacturer of cast iron automotive components. It always inspiring to know the latest development in ferrous metallurgy, given the amazing alloying possibility of Fe! As my company is looking at product diversification, which may also extend to the development of new alloys, I'm always inspired by the rapid development of computational metallurgy and its implications for alloy design! Do you think foundries could collaborate with universities to develop Cast Iron alloys further (considering cast iron's inherent recyclability, and high strength/embodied energy ratio) as a (comparatively) sustainable engineering material? PS: I was a Ph.D. student under Prof Mark Jolly!

[@bhadeshia123]

Thank you. There is a significant carbon dioxide burden associated with iron production. So making a better cast iron that can be used in smaller quantities, while maintaining the same function, is probably the best way to achieve a reduction in the amount of iron used. Collaboration is of course a good idea, but with objectives clearly defined. Best regards, Harry

Hello Prof. Bhadeshia.... Salam hangat dr Indonesia

[@bhadeshia123]

Thank you, and warm greetings to you as well.

Congratulations on your retirement, Dr Bhadeshia. I read your papers on hydrogen embrittlement and heard great things about you from Dr Speer.

[@bhadeshia123]

Thank you - after retiring from Cambridge, I have now joined Queen Mary University of London as Professor of Metallurgy, so I hope to do more. Please give my regards to John Speer, who is one of my favourite metallurgists. Best wishes, Harry

volume --> 11

@@bhadeshia123 It means I enjoyed the lecture very much. The 'volume to 11', to my knowledge, stems from mucisians (guitar players) turning the volume knob of their amplifier beyond the conventional maximum of 10. What I mean to say is that your courses and lectures are music to my ears. Have a splendid day.
