Biographical: Professor, Micro modelling in metallurgical processes at Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Royal Institute of Technology (KTH). Before 2000, his research activities focused mainly on the studies of thermodynamics, kinetics, thermophysical properties and CFD modelling for metallurgical and materials processes. While he emphasises strongly the importance of experimental studies, he also realises the power of mathematical modelling. The research experience in the broad areas has prepared him for doing high standard industrial research. Having the ambition of bridging the gap between fundamental research and process application, a great potion of this research work is directed to the topics relevant to metallurgical and materials processes. In the last 10 years, he has been working closely with European steel industries, solving practical problems based on fundamental research and carrying out long term industrial research programs in the area of steel making, especially clean steel. He has close collaboration with many well-known professors over the global and research institutes like BFI, MEFOS. Working with metallurgical and materials processes has also told him that the knowledge in thermodynamics and kinetics is not too much but too little to meet the advanced material and process development. A part of his recent research has focused on the topics of thermodynamics and kinetics of metallurgy and materials processes.
