Black Nominee for Trustee Amber N. Black is a research and development engineer for Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), where she has worked for the past five years. During that time, she has been a part of Sigma division, the laboratory’s manufacturing science division as part of the Welding and Joining team. She is the subject matter expert on high energy density welding and electron beam additive manufacturing. She has worked with lasers and electron beams for over 15 years, using them to weld, cut, drill, braze, engrave, coat, and for various research processing methods. Black is the principal investigator for a number of high priority projects and the author of numerous reports and presentations, which are instrumental to supporting stockpile stewardship and modernization as part of LANL’s mission. Prior to joining LANL she worked as a Welding Applications Engineer for PTR – Precision Technologies, where she developed welds for customers with aerospace, defense, automotive, research, and industrial applications. She has been a member of the materials science community for 17 years. Black became an ASMmember while an undergraduate at the University of Connecticut, where she began honing her leadership skills as the president of the Material Advantage Chapter. She was an ASM International student board member in 2008-2009. Black also volunteers for the American Welding Society and the International Institute of Welding. In these positions she has been instrumental in standards development, co-authored handbook chapters, and acted as chair for several committees and subcommittees. Black holds a B.S. from the University of Connecticut and a Ph.D. from the Pennsylvania State University. Dr. Pierpaolo Carlone Nominee for Trustee Pierpaolo Carlone is professor of manufacturing technologies and systems at the department of industrial engineeringof theUniversity of Salerno (Italy). He is the head of the composite materials lab and of the metrology lab. He serves as member of both the doctoral council in industrial engineering and the didactic council in mechanical and management engineering. As an educator, Carlone has supervised more than 230 project reports, master theses, Ph.D. theses, and post-docs. He served as external evaluator and member of the jury for numerous Ph.D. candidates. Carlone’s research activities are focused on advanced and lightweight materials processing, in particular fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites, solid-state welding, and heat treatment. He has authored more than 120 papers published in high reputation journals, conference proceedings, book chapters, and one book. Additionally, he has authored two patent inventions on nonmetallic materials treatment. Carlone serves as referee and editorial board member for various scientific journals. He has delivered approximately 50 plenary/keynote/invited lectures and seminars. He has coordinated research projects on materials characterization, manufacturing, and treatment, funded by government or private entities. He also coordinates collaborative research activities on materials science and engineering with several academic and industrial organizations worldwide. He is amember of the Italy-Switzerland Chapter of ASM International. He participates in the ASM Award Selection Committees, the JMEP Editorial Board Committee, and the ASM Technical Books Committee and he received the ASMIIM Visiting Lectureship Award in 2018. Carlone is member of the Italian Association for Manufacturing and director of the European Scientific Association for Material Forming where he is in charge of promoting international cooperation and formulating new initiatives. He also leads the future vision and activities working group of the Association. Dr. André McDonald, FASM Nominee for Trustee André McDonald is currently a professor in the department of mech- anical engineering and also serves as associate vice president (strategic research initiatives and performance) at the University of Alberta. He received his BSME in 2001 and his MSME in 2002 from the City College of New York. He was awarded his Ph.D. from the University of Toronto in 2007 under a collaborative research program with the National Research Council Canada in Boucherville, Quebec. McDonald has nearly 20 years of experience in the fabrication, development, and performance assessment of thermal and cold spray coatings. He has published a textbook on the practical design of thermo-fluid systems, a manual for thermal spraying for the oil and gas industry, several book chapters on thermal spray coatings, and numerous industry reports.
