Biography:
Krishan K. Chawla is professor emeritus in the Materials Science and Engineering department of the University of Alabama. He received his Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in Metallurgical Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His research interests include Processing, microstructure, and properties of materials in general, with a special emphasis on fibers, composite materials, and foams. He has taught and done research at institutions in Switzerland, Brazil, Canada, and the United States and has served as a consultant to industry, national laboratories, and government agencies. He is the author of several successful textbooks that have been published in multiple editions.
