Grain Boundary Diffusion and Grain Boundary Segregation

Edited by: B. Bokstein and N. Balandina

Online since: February 1998

Description: The phenomena of grain boundary diffusion and grain boundary segregation play major roles in determining the properties and behavior of a wide variety of materials. Even though the basic principles have been known for a long time, the field continues to yield a number of very challenging questions.

Intergranular and Interphase Boundaries in Materials II

Edited by: A.C. Ferro, J.P. Conde and M.A. Fortes

Online since: February 1996

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.

Intergranular and Interphase Boundaries in Materials

Edited by: Ph. Komninou and A. Rocher

Online since: January 1993

Description: The review and research papers presented in this volume may be subdivided into three aims:
(i) the investigation and modelling of interfacial structure (ii) efforts to correlate structure/property relationships and (iii) phenomenological descriptions of particular interfacial properties The conference focussed on four objectives: 1.Grain Boundaries Structure and Properties 2.Dynamical and Mechanical Properties 3.Heterophase Interfaces 4.Electrical Properties and Superconductors.
