 Pascal Gardin (ArcelorMittal)
Technical and Scientific Manager of Process Engineering Group, R&D Industrial Operations, Maizières-lès-Metz
After a PhD on experimental fluid mechanics in LEMTA laboratory (Nancy), I joined IRSID in 1990, Usinor Group, with the mission of steelmaking process improvement, using experimental and numerical tools for flow characterisation. Specific development for heat transfer (gas or water jets) and CFD prediction, including MHD were realised. Applications concerned strip cooling or liquid steel cleanliness. Then, I was involved in more transversal activities, especially for Knowledge Buidling Development within ArcelorMittal for Process Improvement, with a special emphasis on collaborative work with academic laboratories.

SCOPE
Goal
The EPM group, part of the SIMAP laboratory, is organizing a seminar aimed at prospecting new research directions in Magnetosciences and their application to Energy and Material Processing.
Background
In 1976, during the Euromech Colloquium entitled “Where is MHD going?”, a new scientific area was foreseen at the crossroads of fluid mechanics, metallurgy and electromagnetism. In 1978, the MADYLAM Joint Research Program was launched in Grenoble to stimulate efforts in this interdisciplinary field. The MADYLAM Laboratory was officially founded in 1986, and its name changed to EPM (Electromagnetic Processing of Materials) in 1994, reflecting the internationally recognized label jointly proposed by Professor S. Asai in Japan and Doctor M. Garnier in France. In 2007, the EPM laboratory merged with other laboratories, becoming one of the six research groups of the new SIMAP (Sciences and Engineering for Materials and Processes) research division.
