Fundamentals of Deformation and Annealing
Description:
Deformation and annealing phenomena are of great technical significance to the processing and application of materials at the industrial scale. This edited collection of peer-reviewed papers was designed as a one-off vehicle for reviewing the current understanding of the basic mechanisms and processes that control deformation and annealing in various materials, together with their modelling and simulation. Another aim was to facilitate discussion of the failings of established theories, to explore new ideas, and to identify avenues where future research is required. The present papers apply these concepts to a wide range of materials and applications; from conventional steels and light alloys to nanocrystalline gold wires and geological samples.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
A total of 94 papers from the September 2006 symposium review the basic mechanisms and processes that control deformation and annealing in different materials, and share recent progress in modeling and simulation. Keynote papers propose models for the prediction of plastic anisotropy and deformation textures, nucleation of recrystallization in aluminum alloys, and microstructure evolution during thermo-mechanical processing. Other topics include deformation processing of sheet metals by continuous frictional angular extrusion, deformation and heat treatment of cold drawn gold, Goss orientation during deformation and annealing of an FeSi crystal, and grain growth kinetics in sub-microcrystalline Armco-iron.
