Prof. Terence G. Langdon graduated in physics from the University of Bristol in 1961 and then obtained his PhD at Imperial College, University of London, UK. After short appointments at the University of California in Berkeley, USA; the University of Cambridge, UK; and the University of British Columbia, Canada, he joined the University of Southern California (USC) in Los Angeles, USA, in 1971 and remained there for more than 40 years. He is now a Professor of Materials Science at the University of Southampton, UK, and a Professor Emeritus of Engineering at USC. He is a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering and he was the recipient of the Acta Materialia Gold Medal in 2012. His research interests include creep and superplasticity of metals, ceramics and geological materials, processing using severe plastic deformation and ultrafine-grained and nanostructured materials.
