Euromat 99, Microstructures, Mechanical Properties and Processes
Author: Yves Bréchet
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 9783527301225
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
The relation between microstructures and mechanical properties has always been a challenge for materials science. Modelling the formation, properties and long term stability of microstructures is one of the most impressive and promising advances of modern materials science. This book presents recent advances and challenges in this fast evolving cross disciplinary field. It addresses applications of classical physical metallurgy, and the need for new modelling approaches, both on the analytical viewpoint and on the simulation side.

Euromat 99, Microstructural Investigation and Analysis
Author: B. Jouffrey
Publisher: Wiley-VCH
ISBN: 9783527301218
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Modern understanding of materials include the approach at the microscopic or nanometric level. In the best case, imaging at the atomic level is possible. These approaches are essential for instance in the exploration of interfaces, surfaces and defects in crystals. Several aspects can be explored, the microstructure, local element composition, and chemical bonds. This book presents the state-of-the-art of modern investigation methods of materials.

Euromat 99, Metal Matrix Composites and Metallic Foams
Author: T. W. Clyne
Publisher: Wiley-VCH
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
It has become clearer which types of MMC systems are entering significant industrial use and what questions concerning their production and performance are of most pressing concern. In addition, intensive attention has been directed recently to metallic foams. These can offer attractive combinations of properties, including high specific stiffness and good energy-absorbing properties, particularly under compressive loading. For both, MMCs and metallic foams, there is intense interest in processing aspects, particularly in terms of cost minimisation consistent with retention of desirable microstructural features.

ISBN: 9783527301911
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
A common feature of advanced functional materials - such as thin films, layered structures and all kinds of nanoscale materials (ultrafine powders, polycrystals, nanocomposites, nanoporous or nanotubular materials) - is that their properties are mainly influenced by the structure and composition of their surfaces and interfaces. This book discusses the processing, fabrication, structure, properties and applications of such interface-controlled materials, highlighting the problem of determining the structure and properties of these advanced materials by different techniques.

Author: Heinz Dimigen
Publisher: Wiley-VCH
ISBN: 9783527301966
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 568
Book Description
Surface technology is a truly interdisciplinary topic in materials science. Nearly every component - no matter whether made of steel, metal, alloys, ceramics or plastic - is coated prior to its application. The integration of protective coatings into the design of complex components is becoming increasingly important and there is a great demand for novel coating processes, comprising surface modification and deposition. Modern coatings are being developed that can meet several functional requirements simultaneously, e.g., transparent and electrically conductive coatings for display applications. A special feature of this book is the section on laser surface treatment.

Innovative Superhard Materials and Sustainable Coatings for Advanced Manufacturing
Author: Jay Lee
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1402034717
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 469
Book Description
Modern industry imposes ever increasing requirements upon tools and tool materials as to the provision for performance under the conditions of high cutting speeds and dynamic loads as well as under intensive thermal and chemical interactions with workpiece materials. The industry demands a higher productivity in combination with the accuracy of geometry and dimensions of workpieces and quality of working surfaces of the machined pieces. These requirements are best met by the tool superhard materials (diamond and diamond-like cubic boron nitride). Ceramics based on silicon carbide, aluminum and boron oxides as well as on titanium, silicon and aluminum nitrides offer promise as tool materials. Tungsten-containing cemented carbides are still considered as suitable tool materials. Hi- hardness and high strength composites based on the above materials fit all the requirements imposed by machining jobs when manufacturing elements of machinery, in particular those operating under the extreme conditions of high temperatures and loads. These elements are produced of difficult-- machine high-alloy steels, nickel refractory alloys, high-tech ceramics, materials with metallic and non-metallic coatings having improved wear resistance, as well as of special polymeric and glass-ceramic materials. Materials science at high pressure deals with the use of high-pressure techniques for the development and production of unique materials whose preparation at ambient pressure is impossible (e. g. , diamond, cubic boron nitride, etc. ) or of materials with properties exceeding those of materials produced at ambient pressure (e. g. , high-temperature superconductors).

Pages : 448
Book Description
Steels are by far the most important construction materials for many applications. Many modern concepts of materials science are being used in steels, e.g., in micro-alloyed steels minute amounts of alloying elements form nanoscale carbides to yield superior strength values. All of these mechanisms have to be controlled in the production facilities on a scale of hundreds of tons. This book addresses these new concepts for improving the efficiency of production technologies
