Diffusion in Materials DIMAT2000
This book covers, on close to 2000 pages, all aspects of basic and applied diffusion research in all important engineering materials, including metals and intermetallics, elemental and compound semiconductors, amorphous and nanocrystalline materials and oxides. -
Defects and Diffusion in Metals
This latest annual look back at the subject includes review papers on some applications of mechanical spectroscopy and magnetic relaxation to the monitoring of diffusion, on the effect of positron diffusion upon their annihilation, on the wind force in electromigration, on the creep of nanocrystalline metals (as related to grain-boundary diffusion) and on self-interstitial atom behaviour at high temperatures in dense metals. -
Metastable, Mechanically Alloyed and Nanocrystalline Materials 2002
This book comprises the proceedings of the 9th International Symposium on Metastable, Mechanically Alloyed and Nanocrystalline Materials (ISMANAM), which was held in Seoul, South Korea, from the 8th to the 12th September 2002. The 127 selected papers, from over 28 countries, which are presented here cover recent scientific discoveries in fundamental research as well as novel engineering applications in the fields of metastable and nanocrystalline materials. Many important issues concerning bulk metallic glasses, bulk nanocrystalline materials, mechanical alloying and mechanochemistry are discussed. -
High Temperature Corrosion in Molten Salts
Numerous commercial processes operate at temperatures exceeding 500 degrees Celsius. The materials used in high-temperature structures have design constraints which are in addition to those on materials used at, or near to, room temperature. These important additional constraints include time-dependent inelastic strain (creep), thermal stability of the microstructure and high-temperature corrosion. The addition of these constraints to those of low cost, strength, toughness, machinability, formability, weldability, and combinations of these, has led to the intensive development, over the past 50 years, of an extensive group of metallic materials: generally referred to as "high-temperature alloys".
