ASM honours member of the GTS Executive Board
|
Peter Heinrich receives the award of ASM
Fellow from the immediate past President and trustee of ASM,
Roger J. Fabian. |
A special honour,
which has so far only been bestowed on a small number of
German-speaking scientists and engineers, was accorded to GTS
Executive Manager Peter Heinrich in autumn 2009, namely his
election as a “Fellow of ASM International”. This award by the
ASM Board of Trustees is only conferred upon the recommendation
of a Fellow and is based on outstanding achievements in the field of materials science and materials engineering. Insiders
therefore liken the title ASM Fellow to that of an honorary
doctor.
Peter Heinrich was awarded
this distinction for his numerous innovative contributions to thermal
coating technology and for his exemplary commitment to and support of
the international thermal spray community.
