Physical Metallurgy

This book combines theoretical concepts, real alloy systems, processing procedures, and examples of real-world applications. It reviews properties common to all metals before discussing specific nonferrous alloy systems, iron-carbon alloys, special steels, low carbon sheet steel, and cast irons.

Zusatztext "The book covers all the major topics in metallurgy as well as some additional subjects such as welding and corrosion. ?Many of the chapters contain example problems that are quite useful for understanding the subject matter. Additionally! each chapter contains a section titles 'Miscellany' that presents certain interesting historical information about the subject matter of that chapter. ?This book! unlike many metallurgy books! presents a generous number of phase diagrams that are useful in describing the behavior of many of the alloys systems presented." -The Journal of Science and Engineering Corrosion!
