Dr. Uday M. Basheer Al-Naib is a senior lecturer at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. He completed a postdoctorate in Materials Engineering at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) between 2013 and 2014. He received his PhD in Materials Engineering from USM in 2013 and obtained his master's and bachelor's degrees in Chemical Engineering from the University of Baghdad and University of Technology, Iraq, respectively. He has over 30 years

of academic and practical experience in the field of ceramic and metal composites, metal alloys, advanced ceramics, and ceramic–metal joining. He is the editor of a book series from IntechOpen. In addition, he is a recognized reviewer for Elsevier. He is acknowledged at the practical level for solving specific problems related to materials industries. This was evident when he published his research work with different publishers and in international material engineering journals with high impact factors. In addition to his own research, Dr. Uday has been acting as a supervisor of several academic theses related to different fields of materials engineering. He received his CEng from Engineering Council, UK, and became a professional members of the Welding Institute in May 2019. He is also a professional member (ProfGradIMMM) of the IOM3 and a fellow member (FIMM) of the Institute of Materials, Malaysia.
