Professor Peter J. Uggowitzer was never officially my mentor or supervisor -- neither during my studies nor in my former postdoc in Leoben. Yet, his presence and friendship over all these years have profoundly shaped both my personal and professional life. Through him, I learned not just metallurgy, but how to think metallurgy -- how … Continue reading The Spirit of Metallurgy at 75 Years Strong
Dr. mont. Patrick Willenshofer’s recent publication, “Influence of alloy chemistry and overaging on mechanical properties and corrosion resistance in aluminium crossover alloys”, is a remarkable contribution to the rapidly evolving field of advanced aluminium alloy development. This paper investigates the nuanced interplay between alloying elements and thermal history in novel AlMgZn-based crossover alloys enriched with copper … Continue reading Pushing the Limits of Aluminium Crossover Alloys
