Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
This work describes the latest advances in, and applications of, advanced rolling equipment and technology. The peer-reviewed articles cover a broad range of topics: advanced rolling processes, equipment and technologies of strip and plate; special rolling equipment and technologies; advanced shearing and straightening equipment and technologies; advanced testing instruments for rolling, shearing, leveling processes and rolled-metal quality; advanced automatic control technologies for rolling, shearing and leveling processes; mathematical modeling and numerical simulation of rolling, shearing and leveling processes; assembly and maintenance of rolling equipment. This book will be a useful reference for professionals working in the field of rolling equipment technology.

Description: The development of specific textures in materials occurs either naturally or by synthesis and processing using various methods. The presence of textures in materials manifests itself in the form of anisotropic properties; the understanding of which is indispensable to precise engineering design. In addition to conventional applications in structural materials, texture control has come to be practised in the form of functional materials. This collection is an edited version of papers presented at the sixteenth international conference on the textures of materials (ICOTOM 16), held at the Indian Institute of Technology in Mumbai, India on December 12-17th, 2011.
The proceedings are broadly divided into six sections; the first being a collection of keynote lectures, followed by papers classified under Deformation, Deformation and Annealing, Techniques, Annealing and Materials.

Description: This eleventh volume in the series covering the latest results in the field includes abstracts of papers which have appeared since the publication of Annual Retrospective X (Volume 272). As well as the 295 metals abstracts, the issue includes – in line with the new editorial policy of including original papers on all of the major material groups: “Structural and Electron-Hopping Studies of Pr- and Nd-Substituted La2/3Ba1/3MnO3 Manganites” (H.Abdullah and S.A.Halim), “Recrystallization Annealing of Cold-Rolled 9Cr-1Mo Ferritic Steel Containing Silicon” (M.N.Mungole, M.Surender, R.Balasubramaniam and S.Bhargava), “Quantitative Concept for Morphological Stability Analysis of Solid/Liquid Interface in Rapid Solidification of Dilute Binary Alloys” (M.Draissia), “Studies of the Spin Hamiltonian Parameters for NiX2 and CdX2:Ni2+ (X = Cl, Br) (Z.H.Zhang, S.Y.Wu, X.F.Wang and Y.X.Hu).

Description: To the materials science community, Texture is an important property which describes the relative orientations of the various material elements which constitute the microstructure. These elements are usually the crystalline grains; each with a different orientation of its crystal lattice. However, morphological textures, such as the arrangement of fibers in a composite material, also have to be considered. In rare cases, the texture is random; with all possible orientations being equally represented in the material. But, usually, processing of the material has caused the texture to become non-random; with a consequent anisotropy of the material properties. Thus, not only metallurgists and materials scientists take an interest in textures, but also physicists, mathematicians, geologists, mechanical engineers and others.

Recrystallization and grain growth, together with phase transformations such as precipitation, are the fundamental processes of microstructural evolution which take place during the thermomechanical processing of engineering materials. They are of major scientific interest and are of great importance in a wide range of industrial applications. One of the main goals of this two-volume set is to show how to cover the entire set of reactions governing recrystallization and grain growth during industrial processing – termed through process modelling.

Description: This book reflects quite clearly the expansion of the field of "textures" as well as the rapid growth of the texture community. During the recent years, the scope of this field has been expanded to virtually all crystalline and even partly crystalline materials including intermetallic compounds, ceramics, polymers as well as multiphase composites and even fullerenes.
