Authors

Arnold Marder Emeritus Professor, Lehigh University, FL, USA. Arnold R. Marder, PhD, FASM, is the R.D. Stout Distinguished Emeritus Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at Lehigh University. He received his BS and MS from the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn and his PhD from Lehigh University. After 20 years at Bethlehem Steel Research, he joined the Energy Research Center at Lehigh University and as Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering. He is a Fellow of ASM International and has received awards for his research from ASM, ASTM, and AWS. His expertise is concentrated in physical metallurgy and structure/property relationships in hot-dip coatings and steel alloys. Frank Goodwin Consultant, International Zinc Association. Frank E. Goodwin, ScD, served as Director of Technology and Market Development at International Zinc Association, before that, International Lead Zinc Research Organization (ILZRO). He earned graduate degrees in Materials Engineering from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a BS degree in Materials Science and Engineering from Cornell University. He received the Nevison Award from the Galvanizers Association (United States), the EGGA Pin from the European General Galvanizers Association, Life Membership in Wire Association International, and is in the American Galvanizers Associatio Hall of Fame. His work has emphasized the continuous improvement of the engineering science platform upon which galvanized steel advances are based.
