Metals and Alloys

• European Powder Diffraction 4
  This comprehensive publication presents most recent results, and covers practically all aspects of powder diffraction. Part 1 contains contributions dealing with powder diffraction methods, and the larger second part comprises contributions which deal with the application of powder-diffraction methods to specific problems in the physics and chemistry of solids.
• Modeling of Materials
  This book contains the proceedings of Symposium L of the International Conference on Materials for Advanced Technologies, held from the 1st to the 6th of July , 2001 in Singapore. The aim of this important meeting was to bring together researchers and engineers having very different backgrounds, and thus promote free discussion and the exchange of ideas across many interdisciplinary boundaries.
• Metastable, Mechanically Alloyed and Nanocrystalline Materials
  Among the various contributions are major papers covering the topics of bulk metallic glasses, GMR in mechanically alloyed materials, nanostructures via melt-spun precursors, mechanical grinding, mechanosynthesis and mechanochemistry. Progress in the area of sintering and compaction techniques is reported. The magnetic, mechanical and electrochemical properties of several nanocrystalline materials are discussed. Significant progress is also reported in the modeling and understanding of basic mechanisms of fabrication processes. Defects and grain boundaries in nanocrystalline materials remain important topics, and are the subject of in-depth consideration.
• Defects and Diffusion in Metals
  This sixth volume in the series covering the latest results in the field includes abstracts of papers which appeared between the publication of Annual Retrospective V (Volumes 213-215) and the end of October 2003.
• Aluminium Alloys
  The present work addresses every aspect - from experiment to modelling - of the physical metallurgy of aluminium alloys; with particular emphasis being placed on processing, microstructures and final properties. The entire gamut of material applications is covered here, including transportation, packaging and building, and all Al-based materials are considered, such as Al-Li alloys, laminates, composites, and ultrafine structures prepared using conventional or novel techniques.
• Defect and Diffusion in Metals
  This issue covers, in the form of abstracts, the work which has been reported between the previous retrospective and the end of 2002. The choice of abstracted papers is guided by criteria such as accessibility, data content and description of important new techniques, phenomena or anomalies. There is also a thorough coverage of qualitative features of diffusion and defect phenomena, computer modelling and theory. The volume also includes invited review and experimental papers which treat a wide range of topics in the field.
• Nondestructive Characterization of Materials VII
  The role of non-destructive evaluation is changing dramatically, and it has already expanded beyond its historical mission of detecting macroscopic defects in structures and in finished components which had usually spent a considerable time in service.
• High Pressure Effects in Chemistry, Biology and Materials Science
  The aim of the celebrated High Pressure School (HPS) is to provide a platform where both young and experienced researchers can meet and exchange their experiences in high-pressure research and techniques. Since 1996, four schools have been held in Warsaw and the tradition has developed of combining the topic of high pressure techniques with workshops which are related to the rapidly developing fields of high pressure science and technology: chemistry, biology and materials science; with particular attention being paid to nanostructured materials.
• Damage Assessment of Structures IV
  Understanding the manner in which damage evolves in engineering materials, systems or structures is currently the focus of extensive research. The object of the present book is to report recent advances in the areas of damage detection, assessment and quantification.
• Defects and Diffusion in Metals
  This issue covers, in the form of abstracts, the work which has been reported between the previous retrospective and the end of 2001. The choice of abstracts is guided by criteria such as accessibility, data content and description of important new techniques, phenomena or anomalies. But there is also a thorough coverage of more qualitative features of diffusion and defect phenomena, computer modelling and theory. The volume also includes, as usual, a number of invited review and experimental papers which treat a wide range of topics in the field.
