Books by Keyword: Phase Transformation

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The technology of microalloying is now, at the end of the 20th century, widely accepted due to the attractive balance of properties which is achievable with the correct control of the interaction between steel chemistry and processing parameters. Microalloying is applied to a broad spectrum of products and has two main goals: to improve the mechanical properties and to save costs.

Description: Zirconia-based systems have been extensively studied for some 25 years, and a wealth of exciting results has been amassed. This book tracks the progress made in the field; from very early phase stability work, to modern approaches which involve quite sophisticated models for the transformation toughening that is associated with the tetragonal to monoclinic phase transformation.

Description: The present publication provides a state of the art view of the ongoing research in the field of metastable and nanocrystalline materials. The latest developments are discussed in order to advance the reader's understanding of the fundamental properties of these classes of materials, with a view to new technological applications.

Description: Modern technology depends upon advanced materials. Life as we know it would hardly be possible without the highly specialized knowledge that has resulted from the extensive scientific research of the 20th Century.

Description: Instabilities and patterning in driven materials are two related topics in materials science to which increasing attention has been paid in the past few years, leading to the emergence of a fastly expanding and pluridisciplinary domain. Theoretical approaches as well as simulations have yielded bases for modelling the kinetics and the dynamics of mutually interacting populations of objects, as well as various transitions towards organized configurations far from equilibrium.

Description: Journal Issue

Description: The volume presents the proceedings of the 6th European Conference, as well as the International Symposia on High Temperature Superconductors and on Mechanical Spectroscopy.

Description: The proceedings of the 2nd Intl. Conference on Surface Engineering with High Energy Beams document well the use and applications of high energy laser, electron and ion beams, and demonstrate the great versatility of these techniques in generating new engineered surfaces for important engineering materials.
