American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers (AIME)
United States
Registrace 28. 09. 2011
Founded in 1871 by 22 mining engineers in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. AIME was one of the first national engineering societies established in the United States, and, along with ASCE (civil), ASME (mechanical), IEEE (electrical), and AIChE (chemical), it is known as an Engineering Founder Society. Together, the engineering Founder Societies form the United Engineering Foundation (UEF).
AIME has 4 Member Societies representing over 150,000 professionals worldwide, including:
SME (Society for Mining, Metallurgy, and Exploration)
TMS (The Minerals, Metals, and Materials Society)
AIST (Association for Iron & Steel Technology)
SPE (Society of Petroleum Engineers).
AIME's Mission is to support its Member Societies. We fulfill this mission by exercising fiscal responsibility, distributing funds, facilitating interaction with the relevant scientific and engineering community, encouraging collaboration among the Member Societies, honoring the legacy and traditions of AIME.

I miss my dad so much 😢 I am grateful to be able to hear his voice
Parabéns pela entrevista meu querido professor Ronaldo Sampaio!
Great video. What an interesting life. Good lessons and well spoken.
Muito orgulho desse tio que proporcionou uma vida melhor para todos os irmãos!!!
Sensacional!
Brilhante carreira. Foi uma honra ser seu aluno e seu colega durante tantos anos, Um exemplo para todos nós.
Que linda história! Um ser humano amoroso que tem ajudado muitas pessoas a desenvolver o seu maior potencial. ❤
As humanity and scientists, we need to stand by and support great minds like Prof Sadoway in his mission to serve science, humanity and the planet. Thank you very much! May your funding be plenty, and your morale and dedication highest!
Thank you for your kind words.
His dad, Clifford Shull, won the Nobel Prize. I am honored to work with Dr. Shull at Adventure in Science.
Fantastic recounting of a Rodney's career in titanium development, Adam. He'll be missed.
😭 'Promosm'
Dear Prof. Harry Bhadeshia, thank you very much for sharing with us your great story of inspiration for so many people in the metallurgical community all over the world.
I happened to be looking up something else of Betty's and found this two-part oral history interview of Cousin Betty. I watched both parts in its entirety in one sitting. I was very impressed! The interview was particularly fascinating, not only because she is my cousin, but though I already knew some of her professional background, this oral history fills in so much more. The interview process came so naturally to her, was well spoken, an interesting story teller, and even some of her personal family background subtly comes through. I'm proud to be able to call her my cousin.
John, thank you for your feedback on Betty's oral history videos. AIME is honored to be able to bring the stories of prominent members to the public. We are so happy you enjoyed it!
My husband was a coal miner until covid got bad and he was laid off. Thank you Dr. Peng for all your years of hard work and dedication toward keeping our miners safe! Also thank you to your wife and the hard work and contributions she has also made at WVU, inside and outside of our community. You are both such inspiring individuals!
Glad to have found this video of my uncle Harry, my mom's brother
Great interview and it has been an honor to know Michael for a long time. Congratulations and we thank you for all your contributions to the steel industry.
It was our pleasure to record this interview. Thank you for your comments.
Very emotional to watch Dr. Kogel. This is an excellent interview and it is always wonderful and inspiring to hear Dr. Kogel.
Thank you for your kind words.
my friend has the same name as you, but hes 30 years younger
I am so proud to have worked for this man, and with this fantastic company he built!
Congratulations Ted! Your old high school buddy Doug Smith.
My grandma is a 100 and doing great, but you're next level. What an inspiration
Excellent information 🙏
Dale - It was a wonderful experience to hear from the doyen of the Blast Furnace and the experiences that shaped Dale Heinz - Man of Steel. I was lucky to have your association during my professional career but knew very little about your journey to achieve such greatness. Your quote about blast furnace reverberates through my mind that it fascinates you how dirt taken out of the earth turns into hot liquid metal that floats like water. It is incredible that it simulates the rocks undergoing melting in a subduction zone and erupting like lava from a volcano. You and Debbie look like they never aged! Thank you for your invaluable contributions to the steel industry and guiding young engineers to successful careers.
Ture awaken comments.....nice
Amusment parks for controllers.
The interview was very Interesting and enlightening. As his niece I knew some of his job but found out so much more. The one point I disagree with his book The Elephphant's Grip I found the mining very Interesting. However in fairness I live in the Appalachian mining region and my husband's family were miners. So maybe I didn't any problem with the terminology. Once again I enjoyed the interview.
We are happy that you enjoyed the interview. Thank you for your comments. We enjoyed working with Ray!
Thank you

A fine academic champion!
Awesome way to teach or illustrate ideas with an interactive group and 80s music is great. Thank you! I wish you would have more videos like these series.
What a career Harriet had so far! Congrats to her!
Dr. Howard was a remarkable man and an excellent teacher. We were always so blown away by how simple everything in Thermodynamics and Extractive Metallurgy seemed to him, and he was always available to provide advice and support. He made an incredible difference for the next generation of metallurgists.
We were so very fortunate to be able to capture his story to share!
Professor Howard developed a tool for calculating ellingham diagram and phase diagram calculator. Available on his website. Highly recommended!
Thanks for the info!
It was an honor and a privilege to know and work with Charlie Totten. He never hesitated to share his vast degree of knowledge and experience with anyone who needed help.
James, thank you so much for the comment. Charlie was one of the great ones!
What a great person!
Yes, and it was a real treat getting to work with him on this great oral history capture!
Looks like a great year. Merry Christmas to all.
