Evangelos Hristoforou received a D. Eng degree in electrical engineering from the University of Patras, Greece, in 1984, and a PhD degree in electronic and electrical engineering from King’s College, University of London, UK, in 1991. He served as a postdoctoral fellow at the NCSR “Demokritos”, Athens, Greece, from 1991 to 1994. In 1994, he was appointed as an assistant professor at the Electrical Engineering Department, TEI of Chalkis, where he was became a professor in 1998. In 2000, he was appointed as an assistant professor of electronic materials at the Laboratory of Physical Metallurgy, School of Mining and Metallurgy Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Greece, and in 2010, he served as a professor at the same position. In 2016, he was appointed as a professor and Director of the Laboratory of Electronic Sensors at the School of Electrical & Computer Engineering, National Technical University of Athens. His research interests include new magnetic effects and materials for engineering applications. He has published more than 170 ISI journal papers, over 50 conference papers, and he holds 5 international patents (Scopus h-index=30). He has supervised 13 PhD theses, more than 90 final year diploma theses and over 50 MSc Theses. He is the Chair of the Hellenic Society of Non-Destructive Techniques (NDT), a member of the European Federation of NDT and the International Confederation of NDT, and the supervisor of 17 PhD students.
On Friday, 17 June 2022, MDPI and the Journal Metals organized the third webinar on Metals, entitled "Steel Health Monitoring and Faultless Steel Production & Manufacturing", chaired by Professor Evangelos Hristoforou from the School of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the National Technical University of Athens in Greece.
The steel health monitoring Webinar aims at introducing specialists in the field of structural health monitoring in the particular subject of correlating residual stresses and plastic deformation with magnetic properties, namely magnetic permeability and Barkhausen noise, as well as methods, sensors and devices to monitor these magnetic properties. The physical aspects will be analyzed by Professor Aphrodite Ktena, National Kapodistrian University of Athens, while the devices & electronics will be introduced by Professor Alessandro Trifiletti, La Sapienza University of Rome.
The presentations were followed by a Q&A and a discussion, moderated by the Chair. The webinar was offered via Zoom and required registration to attend. The full recording can be found here on Sciforum website.
