He uses phenomenological and statistical mechanics models in a computational framework to investigate microstructure and texture (micro-texture) evolution during processing and predict effective properties (mechanical, transport and magnetic). His present research interests are processing of fuel cell materials and modeling of their transport and mechanical properties.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis honor will be conferred at the October Convocation of Fellows in Columbus, OH.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;The 2015 Class of Fellows will also be featured in the September issue of \u003Cem\u003EASM News\u003C\/em\u003E.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EASM International\u0026nbsp;was founded in 1913 as the American Society for Metals.
