Grain boundaries are important structural components of polycrystalline materials used in the vast majority of technical applications. Because grain boundaries form a continuous network throughout such materials, their properties may limit their practical use. One of the serious…
Covers dispersion-hardened and fibre-reinforced alloys, addressing principal mechanisms, processing and applications. This title deals with mechanical behaviour based on dislocation theory and elastic-plastic mechanics. It provides data on advanced composites are provided.
Precision metal additive manufacturing
Sheet metal forming: processes and applications
This book offers a strong introduction to fundamental concepts on the basis of materials science. It conveys the central issue of materials science, distinguishing it from merely solid state physics and solid state chemistry, namely to develop models that provide the relation be…
