Why Is Walter Boas Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Walter Moritz Boas FAA was a German-Australian metallurgist. Boas was born in Berlin, Germany and was educated at the Berlin Institute of Technology . After several positions at German and Swiss institutions, Boas became a lecturer in metallurgy at University of Melbourne in 1938; then from 1940 to 1947, senior lecturer. From 1947 to 1949, Boas was principal research officer, CSIR Division of Tribophysics; and from 1949 to 1969 chief of the division.
