overview

Mingjian Hua initially joined the department as a visiting scholar in 1988. He earned his BS in Physical Metallurgy in 1982 from Beijing University of Iron and Steel Technology and MS in Materials Science in 1984 from Beijing Institute of Aeronautical Materials, China. Since earning his PhD in 1994, he has been a research faculty member with this department. Hua's research interests are in the areas of phase transformations and physical metallurgy. His research activities have involved extensive application of advanced microscopy techniques, such as transmission electron microscopy, STEM, quantitative metallography, and atom probe field ion microscopy. Hua has worked on the precipitation, grain boundary segregation and properties of steels, aluminum alloys, super alloys, and intermetallics.
