  • (A) ABSTRACT the Development of a Solid Research Grounding in the Field
    Teza de abilitare: Ana Virginia SOCALICI [2016] (A) ABSTRACT The development of a solid research grounding in the field of materials engineering, supported by the teaching foundation of the modern technologies applied for materials making and processing, is a very topical issue in the contemporary society, and this could be primarily achieved through the professional and academic experience of the professors involved in this field. The habilitation thesis is a summary of the scientific concerns and activities carried out after sustaining the PhD Thesis at Politehnica University of Timişoara, in 2004, entitled “Contributions to improve the quality of steel parts obtained by forging large ingots”, under the guidance of professor dr. eng. Ioan ILCA, when I obtained a doctoral degree in the field of fundamental engineering sciences, Ph.D. field Materials Science and Engineering, confirmed by the Ministerial Order no. 4450 issued on 02.08.2004. The general objective of the habilitation thesis is the logically argued and documented presentation of the scientific achievements obtained after sustaining the doctorate thesis. The paper is conceived in order to clearly delineate the major research directions. The results of scientific work falls in the field of materials engineering, being approached the following research directions: Modern methods and technologies applied in steelmaking; Technologies used to recover the ferrous waste and scrap for greening the industrial environment. The scientific work carried out led to the development of competencies in: Technologies used for making and casting metal alloys; Metal materials testing; Optimization of steel making and casting; Modelling and simulation of steel solidification processes; Application of greening technologies on bulk ferrous waste recovery; Processing and interpretation of the research results.

  • Doctorate 1 Doctorate
    Doctorate 1 Doctorate A doctorate is an academic degree or professional degree that, in most countries, qualifies the holder to teach at the university level in the specific field of his or her degree, or to work in a specific profession. The research doctorate, or the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) and its equivalent titles, represents the highest academic qualification. While the structure of U.S. doctoral programs is more formal and complex than in some other systems, the research doctorate is not awarded for the preliminary advanced study that leads to doctoral candidacy, but rather for successfully completing and defending the independent research presented in the form of the doctoral dissertation (thesis). Several first-professional degrees use the term “doctor” in their title, such as the Juris Doctor and the US version of the Doctor of Medicine, but these degrees do not universally contain an independent research component or always require a dissertation (thesis) and should not be confused with PhD degrees or other research doctorates.[1] In fact many universities offer Ph.D followed by a professional doctorate degree or joint Ph.D. with the professional degree (most often Ph.D. work comes sequential to the professional degree): eg. Ph.D. in law after J.D. or equivalent [2][3][4][5] in physical therapy after DPT,[6][7] in pharmacy after DPharm.[8][9] Often such professional degrees are refereed as entry level doctorate program [10][11][12] and Ph.D as postprofessional doctorate. In some countries, the highest degree in a given field is called a terminal degree, although this is by no means universal (the term is not in general use in the UK, for example), practice varies from country to country.
