Presentation title: Breaking cryogenic temperature strength-ductility trade-off via deformation omega phase transition and nano-twinning in low carbon low alloy bainitic steel

Dr. Zhenjia Xie is an associate professor at State Key Laboratory for Advanced Metals and Materials in University of Science and Technology Beijing (USTB). He received his PhD in Materials Science and Engineering in 2016 from USTB. During his Ph.D program, he spent one year at McMaster University as a joint-training student with Prof. S.V. Subramanian. His research interests focus on phase transformation and microstructure control of low alloy steels, microstructure characterization, strength and toughness mechanism, thermodynamic and numerical simulations. He has published 60+ journal papers. He was awarded by the second prize in The National Technological Invention Award.
