Hatfield memorial lectures The Vol. 2 PDF

In considering a subject for this Hatfield Memorial Lecture, I have not been unmindful of what appeared to be the predilection of the Lecture Committee, that I should speak upon transformations in steel. This subject seemed appropriate to me, for the catholicity of Dr Hatfield's activities in the metallurgical field led him to manifest a deep and discerning interest in such matters, as the pages of the transactions of this Institute abundantly show, and the subject isthus one that would have interested him. Perhaps in this way this lecture may be taken asa tribute to him, to his long labours in the advancement of metallurgy, and to the beneficent influence he exerted. This subject is indeed one which has been pursued at some length in the laboratory with which I am associated,and I shall enjoy putting our views before you.
