There is a growing interest in the field of Mechanically Alloyed, Metastable and Nanocrystalline Materials, especially with regard to linking basic research efforts to technological requirements of industrial applications.
A major objective of the present book was to ensure that the various disciplines involved in the study, development and commercialization of these materials were well represented. The technical objective was to address key issues which are associated with the science and technology of this rapidly evolving field of research.

Description: This publication comprises Vol. 4 (supplement) of the Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Aluminium Alloys, held in Grenoble, France, July 1-5, 1996, which addressed all aspects - experimental to modelling - of the physical metallurgy of aluminium alloys.

Description: Interest in the phenomenon of superplasticity has been increasing steadily over the past two decades, both with regard to promoting fundamental scientific understanding as well as commercial application. Most of the early studies on superplasticity dealt with microduplex metallic alloys. The unabated interest in, and scientific research on, superplasticity has now broadened the scope of the topic to include intermetallic compounds, ceramics, composites and nanocrystalline materials.

Description: 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.

Description: In recent years the particular significance of Materials Science and Technology has been generally accepted in the industrial countries. The use of materials in different applications is limited due to their natural tendency to react with their environment, i.e. corrosion. Since corrosion is typically an electrochemical phenomenon, different electrochemical methods form the scientific basis of corrosion research.

Description: Fundamental and applied research efforts to develop, characterize, and design structures with high temperature composite materials such as metal matrix composites (MMCs) are underway across the continents. New processing methods, evaluation of critical material properties, constitutive modeling, performance prediction are important needs which are essential for effective utilization and application of these materials.

Description: The term "interface" means different things structurally, according to the materials involved and their thermal and mechanical history. Moreover, an adequate description of an interface may vary considerably, according to the property being related to it.
