Modeling and Simulation for the Finishing Industry - the 55th William Blum Memorial Lecture
| Products Finishing
As Dr. Keith Legg, 2019 recipient of the NASF Scientific Achievement Award, watched the changes in industry over the past decade or so, he has seen modeling and simulation move from one industry to another. Seeing how and where it is used elsewhere, he concludes that modeling could be more widely and profitably used in the surface finishing industry. In his Blum lecture, he discusses how modeling for surface finishing is a recognized approach today. It is proving to be very useful for plating and some finishing processes and is finding new uses as it develops, but there is a lot to learn. The aim is to make modeling a standard, integrated approach to coating development and corrosion protection.
AESF Research Projects and Some Related Results (2005)
| Products Finishing
The NASF and AESF Foundation have been funding research projects in surface finishing for nearly a century. Not only have basic questions and new technologies been addressed, but numerous students have been introduced to and have made careers in our industry. This is well illustrated by the examples of projects undertaken at Penn State University, as described in Dr. Pickering’s 45th William Blum Lecture from 2005. Such successes continue today in our current research program.
