Silver Metallization
Springer 2007; US$ 129.99With the lowest resistivity of all metals, silver is an attractive interconnect material for higher current densities and faster switching speeds in integrated circuits. This book discuss the understanding of silver metallization and its potential as a interconnect material for integrated circuit technology. more...
Bulk Metallic Glasses
Springer 2007; US$ 119.99"Bulk Metallic Glasses" are materials with many desirable properties, such as high strength, good hardness, wear resistance, and high corrosion resistance that can be produced in near net shape components. This work gives an overview and includes: the principles of alloy design, glass formation, atomistic modeling, computer simulations, and... more...
Magnesium Injection Molding
Springer 2007; US$ 149.99The objective of this book, being the first one on magnesium injection molding, is to treat both the scientific background and the technological aspects as they are understood at present. All aspects of material development, manufacturing and engineering will be covered including production, processing and application of magnesium and its alloys; research... more...
Mineral Deposit Research, Meeting the Global Challenge
Springer 2008; US$ 209.99Represents a comprehensive summary of the developments across a range of subject matters that are relevant to the global research, mining and exploration community. This proceedings volume (including CD-ROM) is a compilation of approximately 400 extended abstracts (up to 4 pages long) of presentations given at the 8th Biennial SGA Meeting. more...
Physical Metallurgy of Direct Chill Casting of Aluminum Alloys
Taylor & Francis 2008; US$ 179.95Drawing directly from the author??'s own pioneering research, and providing the unique viewpoint of physical metallurgy, this book examines structure and defect formation -- including macrosegregation and hot tearing -- that occurs during direct chill casting. This metallurgic viewpoint, not found in other volumes, is especially useful in connecting... more...
Physical Metallurgy
Elsevier Science 1996; US$ 1,265.00This is the fourth edition of a work which first appeared in 1965. The first edition had approximately one thousand pages in a single volume. This latest volume has almost three thousand pages in 3 volumes which is a fair measure of the pace at which the discipline of physical metallurgy has grown in the intervening 30 years. Almost all the topics... more...
Standard Handbook of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering
Elsevier Science 1996; US$ 103.00Petroleum engineering now has its own true classic handbook that reflects the profession's status as a mature major engineering discipline. Formerly titled the Practical Petroleum Engineer's Handbook, by Joseph Zaba and W.T. Doherty (editors), this new, completely updated two-volume set is expanded and revised to give petroleum engineers a comprehensive... more...
Ferrous Materials
Springer 2008; US$ 149.99The annual global production of ferrous materials exceeds the sum of all other metallic materials by more than one order of magnitude. The huge demand for ferrous materials is driven not only by costs and availability, but chiefly by their wide range of useful properties that can be tailored by alloying and processing. This book addresses these relationships... more...
Mining Equipment Reliability, Maintainability, and Safety
Springer 2008; US$ 139.99From its origins in the malachite mines of ancient Egypt, mining has grown to become a global industry which employs many hundreds of thousands of people. Today, the mining industry makes use of various types of complex and sophisticated equipment, for which reliability, maintainability and safety has become an important issue. Mining Equipment Reliability,... more...
Handbook of Thermal Process Modeling of Steels
Taylor & Francis 2008; US$ 199.95Offers practicing engineers a resource that meets the needs of those new to modeling and those hoping to profit from advances in the field. This book demonstrates what is involved in predicting material response under industrial rather than laboratory conditions, and gives insight into the physical origins of various aspects of materials behavior. more...
