She is proud to have received a CAT CEO Award in 2022 and to be the driving force behind the formation of a Metallurgical Failure Analysis Team
PEORIA, IL, May 31, 2023 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Lucy Victoria Davies, PhD, has been included in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Leveraging more than three decades of excellence in metallurgy, surface engineering and manufacturing, Dr. Davies has earned distinction as a senior engineering materials specialist with Caterpillar Inc. Among her most recent professional accomplishments, she is proud to have received a CAT CEO Award in 2022 and to be the driving force behind the formation of a Metallurgical Failure Analysis Team, dedicated solely to diesel fuel systems. For the past two years, she has focused her efforts on training and leading this team and becoming the company technical expert on super clean steel for the manufacture of high-pressure components.
Prior to her current role, Dr. Davies began her Caterpillar career as an engineering specialist focused on the tribology & surface engineering of diesel fuel systems, accumulating 13 years of expertise in this field. As a teenager in the 80's Lucy discovered she was dyslexic and left high school, without graduating, as a direct consequence of the lack of acceptance of this learning disability at the time. She turned this into a positive, giving her the driving force to earn a bachelor's degree in metallurgy from Manchester University, as a mature student. Then finally, in her 30's, she attained her dream by completing her Doctorate in Philosophy, with a focus in tribology, from Hull University. This she achieved while working full time as a factory metallurgist for a progressive pump manufacturer. She moved to America to join Caterpillar at the age of 34 and has consequently flourished in her chosen profession.
Within the coming years, Dr. Davies intends to continue her work while focusing more time on the development of the younger generation of Caterpillar metallurgists. Her philosophy in life is to stay humble, help others and show, through example, that you can achieve anything in life.
