Description:

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.

Description: Continuing the scope of the preceding Conferences on Intergranular and Interphase Boundaries in Materials, the present conference focused on the atomic-level modeling of interfaces, the structural and chemical characterization of internal interfaces, on their thermodynamic, kinetic, mechanical, electrical, magnetic behavior and high-Tc superconductivity, and on the application of current knowledge to the design of polycrystalline materials having improved properties. Particular attention was paid to non-equilibrium segregation in irradiated materials.
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).

Description: This publication focuses on the structural and chemical characterization of interfaces and their kinetic, mechanical and electrical properties. The size of the volume, consisting of almost 200 papers and over 900 pages, reflects the great current interest in the field.
