Nonferrous Metals

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A long-awaited text that fills the void in non-ferrous metallurgy literature While most undergraduate metallurgy textbooks focus on iron, the most commercially important metallic element, Structure-Property Relations in Nonferrous Metals is a comprehensive textbook covering the remaining eighty-two nonferrous metals. Designed to be readily accessible to materials engineering students at all academic levels, the text describes the relationships between the atomic-, crystal-, and micro-structures of nonferrous metals, and such physical behaviors as strength, ductility, electrical conductivity, and corrosion. In order to capture and retain students' interest, the authors maintain a strong focus on practical application. Each chapter supplements fundamental concepts with engaging examples from actual engineering case studies and industrial projects, directly relating content to real-world application. Part One describes the general concepts of crystal- and micro-structures and the implications of these structures for the mechanical, thermal, and electronic properties of nonferrous metals, intermetallic compounds, and metal matrix composites. Chapters focus on such relevant topics as: * Point, line, and planar defects and their effects on a material's properties * Dislocations and strengthening mechanisms * Fracture and fatigue * Strain rate effects and creep * Deviations from classic crystallinity * Processing methods * Composites and intermetallic compounds Part Two builds on Part One by exploring how the concepts presented define the properties of a particular metallic element and its alloys, and how these properties contribute to the engineering uses of each nonferrous metal. An accompanying ftp site contains homework problems, appendices, bibliographies, and tables of data indicating the nations producing metallic elements and the quantities produced. Structure-Property Relations in Nonferrous Metals is a valuable reference for both students in undergraduate metallurgy courses and practicing engineers.

Autorenporträt

Ana Russell grew up in Bogotá, Colombia. Her family moved to the United States when she was a teen. After obtaining her bachelor's in chemical engineering from the University of Oklahoma, she relocated to Austin, Texas. She works in a Tech company while also taking care of her two wonderful boys. Two Boys on a Sailboat was inspired by the questions her older son would ask her, as they did their day-to-day activities. When they were swinging in the park, the swings were not just swings, but airplanes, and their blocks were not mere toys, but bricks to build a whole city. It made her think how lucky she was to be able to be invited into their imagination. She wanted to share their world with the world, while also sharing a piece of her culture which she tries hard to keep alive.
