This book covers the principal topics of basic and applied research on diffusion-controlled transport phenomena in metals, ceramics and other systems. Particular attention is paid to diffusional mass transport, reactive diffusion, interdiffusion and phase transformations. Further attention is paid to the practical aspects of applying a deeper understanding of diffusion and reaction mechanisms to the development of materials with improved service properties.
The theory of interdiffusion, reactive diffusion and defect phenomena, the predictions of computer models, and other theoretical studies are extensively covered. Altogether, this again makes the present work an up-to-date and convenient source of information on current trends in the field of solid-state diffusion.
The proceedings of an International Conference "Diffusion in Metals and Alloys" (DIMETA-82, Hungary, September 1982) are related to physical metallurgy and are dedicated to researching various types of diffusion processes in metals and alloys, intermetallic compounds, amorphous metals, and heterogeneous systems. There are articles in this issue also devoted to grain boundary and surface diffusion phenomena, crystallographic defects, and novel experimental methods of diffusion phenomena study.
