Books by Keyword: Diffusion Coefficient

Description:

Since the 4th 1998 edition, there have been numerous crucial advances to the modelling and the basic understanding of solidification phenomena, and with its linking to experimental results. These topics have been incorporated into this 5th Fully Revised Edition, as well as a new final chapter on microstructure selection which explains how to combine the concepts of the preceding chapters for modelling real microstructures, in complex processes such as additive manufacturing.

This new 5th edition is of high interest to undergraduate and graduate levels and professionals.
With its numerous new topics - also borne out by the new authorship - students and teachers, scientists and engineers will greatly benefit from this new book. The topics are presented in the same praised manner as in previous editions, readable at three levels:
- an initial feel for the subject is obtained by consulting the figures and their detailed captions;
- a deeper understanding of the underlying physics is found by working through the main text;
- 15 appendices offer a detailed analysis of the various theories, by providing detailed derivations of the relevant equations.
Particularly Novel: the final chapter 8 on microstructure-selection explains how to combine the concepts of the preceding chapters to model the real microstructures formed during complex processes such as additive manufacturing, and the new detailed phase-field appendix which opens the door to the accurate computer-modelling of growth-forms.
This edition goes with a companion Solutions Manual offering model solutions to 133 problems (exercises).

Description:

Solutions Manual is a companion book to the Fundamentals of Solidification 5th edition offering model solutions to 133 problems (exercises). The 5^th edition of Fundamentals of Solidification (2023) includes new contributions on phase-field modelling and a new 8^th Chapter on microstructure selection. It explains how to combine the concepts of the seven preceding chapters of the book so as to model the real microstructures that form during complex processes such as additive manufacturing … which are still a challenge or are out of reach of numerical simulation. This Solutions Manual, together with the 5^th edition of the main text, will offer its readership a good start in the field, and prepare them for tackling more involved treatments of solidification.

The main book Fundamentals of Solidification 5th fully revised edition is available separately.

Description: Diffusion is an omnipresent, but the important phenomenon in a wide variety of disciplines and applications in physical, chemical, biological, geologic, materials science and engineering processes. While diffusion-controlled phase transformations involve in a variety of materials processes, ranging from solidification to different solid-state transformations. Modeling of diffusion and diffusion-controlled phase transformations in alloys has been of long-standing fundamental interests because advance modeling can help to improve the understanding of complex materials processes. Moreover, as the recent boost in Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME) and Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) projects, additional emphasis on the necessity and urgency of the quantitative modeling of diffusion and diffusion-controlled phase transformations in alloys has been laying, which can provide useful information for accelerating the novel alloys design. Consequently, the purpose of this book, entitled "Modeling of Diffusion and Diffusion-Controlled Phase Transformations in Alloys" is to provide a collection of the commonly used computational approaches for modeling diffusion and diffusion-controlled phase transformations, as well as their current status, recent developments, future trends and applications in different alloys.

Description: The wide practical use of the diffusion barrier phenomenon in the various areas of science and modern engineering is impossible without the studying of all aspects of their creation, functioning and degradation. The present monograph covers a specific and important aspect of the diffusion barriers damaging process - the deleterious effect of atomic-scale defects in the structure of diffusion barriers.

Description: This periodical publishes research and review articles on hybrid nanomaterials such as inorganic-organic, inorganic-inorganic and organic-organic. It focuses on all aspects of nanoscience, nanotechnology and composites.

Description: This special issue of Defect and Diffusion Forum contains selected refereed papers which were presented at the 7th International Conference on Diffusion in Solids and Liquids (DSL-2011) held on the 26 to 30th June 2011 at the Hilton Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal. The goal of the conference was to provide a unique opportunity to exchange information, to present the latest results and review burning issues in contemporary diffusion research. Young scientists were especially encouraged to attend the conference and to establish international links with established scientists.

Description: The International Conference on Diffusion in Materials (DIMAT) is the benchmark conference series for diffusion in solids. DIMAT 2011 was organized by the University of Bourgogne in association with CNRS, Dijon (France). The conference showcased new results concerning theoretical tools as well as applied research approaches. Diffusion processes affect all types of materials: nanomaterials, materials for energy, metallurgy, glasses and ceramics, but each requires its own numerical tools.
