Analytical Characterization of Aluminum, Steel, and Superalloys
CRC Press 2005; US$ 209.95Rather than an experimental guide for specific techniques, this handbook offers an overview of a wide range of characterization methodologies useful to materials scientist, engineers, and advanced students. MacKenzie (a technical specialist in Pennsylvania) and Totten (mechanical and materials engineering, Portland State U.) introduce methods speci more...
Laser Cladding
CRC Press 2004; US$ 189.95Laser cladding uses a laser heat source to deposit a thin layer of metal on a substrate. With the reduced cost of laser systems, and the effectiveness of such techniques as powder injection, laser material processing has grown substantially. The authors (mechanical engineering, U. of Waterloo, Canada) examine present and future applications of lase more...
Secondary Steelmaking
CRC Press 2000; US$ 149.95Ghosh (emeritus, materials and metallurgical engineering, Indian Institute of Technology) discusses the principles and applications relevant to secondary steelmaking processes, which are aimed at producing steel of superior quality through further refining and processing after the primary steelmaking is done. These secondary processes include deoxi more...
Titanium Alloys
CRC Press 2006; US$ 219.95Joshi (Defence Metallurgical Research Laboratory, India) compiles an atlas of aeronautical grade titanium alloys that failed in a laboratory under controlled testing conditions. The fractographic atlas consists of 300 black and white images divided into alpha, beta, and alpha + beta titanium alloys, and titanium aluminides. As an introduction to fr more...
Steel Frame Structures
Taylor & Francis 1985; US$ 310.00Sufficient introductory material has been included in each chapter to enable anyone with a fundamental knowledge of structural mechanics to become familiar with various aspects of the subject. Each of the ten chapters in the book highlights the techniques developed to solve a selected facet of frame instability. Thus the earlier chapters deal principally... more...
Fundamentals of metallurgy
Woodhead Publishing Limited 2005; US$ 305.00An applied text on the fundamentals of metallurgy that will appeal to both the academic, and steel producing markets. Overall emphasis is on properties and processes. more...
Foundry Technology
Elsevier Science 2001; US$ 190.00Foundry Technology brings together basic metal casting phenomena, foundry techniques and product characteristics in a single work of reference. Peter Beeley was a foundry manager before he became a senior lecturer in metallurgy, and subsequently maintained continuous links with the castings industry and associated research activities and publications.... more...
Light Alloys
Elsevier Science 2005; US$ 123.95The definitive overview of the science and metallurgy of aluminum, magnesium, titanium and beryllium alloys, this is the only book available covering the background materials science, properties, manufacturing processes and applications of these key engineering metals in a single accessible volume. Use of these metals is now more widespread than ever,... more...
