I am materials engineer, I have a very good experience in metals manufacturing, fabrication, and heat treating. Also, I have a very well knowledge in steel hardening on both scales (surface and through hardening) using several techniques, such as: electric resistance furnaces, salt bath furnaces, carburizing and carbonitriding, and flame hardening. I decided to complete my Ph.D study in Concordia University under the supervision of Dr. Mamoun Medraj as a step to join both my practical experience with the academic part.
