The 15th conference on metallography was held on September 21-23, 2021, in Mariánské Lázně, Czech Republic. It was focused on the application of metallography in industrial practice - for the solution of production problems, elucidation of premature failure of machine components and constructions during service, breakdowns or accidents. In addition, some results of new research projects which could improve manufacturing technology or the quality of machine products were presented. Among other contributions from the conference collected in this book, individual papers deal with failure causes and fracture mechanisms, insufficient material properties and incorrect function of the components. Using metallographic analyses, which include light and electron microscopy, spectroscopic methods, and physical methods for the detection of defects, material structures are also investigated. Results are correlated with material properties, and recommendations for production improvement are given.
The results of research and engineering developments in the field of modern engineering materials and technologies of their processing are presented. Research results in materials degradation and failure, analysed of concrete properties at various cement compositions, studied processes of drying in agricultural products and some innovations in textile production are described. The presented edition will be helpful for many engineers and academics worldwide.
These are the proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Machinery, Materials Science and Engineering Applications ( MMSE 2012 ) held on the 16 and 17th June, 2012, in Wuhan, China. The object was to strengthen national academic exchanges and cooperation in the field, to promote the rapid development of machinery, materials science and engineering application and to improve China's machinery more effectively.
Recent research on the creep and fracture of engineering materials is presented, with particular emphasis being placed on: mechanisms of high-temperature deformation and fracture, materials for high-temperature service, the behavior of single and polycrystals, components and structures, grain boundaries and interfaces, and superplasticity.
