Biography

Ke Jun, male, Han nationality, is a native of Huangyan, Zhejiang Province. He graduated from Wuhan University. He obtained a doctorate degree from Birmingham University of the UK in 1948. Ke Jun has also received honorary degrees from McMaster University of Canada and University of Surrey of the UK.

Ke Jun has served as professor and consultant of Beijing Science and Technology University. He has been devoted to the research of phase variation in alloy for several decades. His original discovery of bainite shear mechanisms in steel, still holds as the primary theory of bainite formation mechanisms among the scholars of the UK, the USA, Germany, Japan and Russia.

In the 1950s, he was the first to observe blocking action on the growth of atomic cluster martensite by matrix deformation in the formation of martensite of steel. Ke Jun has systematically studied the formation of butterfly-shaped martensite resulting from atomic clusters of Fe-Ni-V-C steel. He developed martensite phase variation dynamics, and directed the research of the action mechanisms of trace boron in steel. He led and participated in the research of the archaeological metallurgical history of China. Ke Jun introduced the idea that the invention and development of China's pig iron technology contributed to the technological advancement of China and the world's civilization.

Ke Jun was elected an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1980.
