The Concise Encyclopedia of Materials Processing

Klappentext An exemplary reference on materials processing from Elsevier's highly regarded Encyclopedia of Materials: Science and Technology! this volume provides exceptional information on how processes produce useful products. Extensive coverage includes extensive articles on casting techniques! deformation processing! crystal growth! heat-treatment! machining and joining techniques! as well as the production and consolidation of powders. Zusammenfassung Explains how materials are transformed from their raw-materials state to useful products. This encyclopedia covers articles on casting techniques! deformation processing! crystal growth! heat-treatment! machining and joining techniques! as well as the production and consolidation of powders. It offers information on materials processing. Inhaltsverzeichnis Sheet forming: blanking, piercing, pressing, deep drawing, spinning and flow turning, stretch forming, fluid and rubber forming, high-rate forming processes, welding, etc. Bulk forming: hot, warm and cold forging, rolling and extrusion, rotary forging, ring rolling, hydrostatic extrusion, conforming, net-shape manufacturing, etc. Powder forming: compaction, sintering, forging, extrusion, etc. Forming in the melt or near-melt condition: die casting, mushy-state forging, net-shape manufacturing, etc. Material-removal processes: cutting, grinding, ECM, EDM, etc. Non-traditional processes: shot peening and other impact-related processes, die-manufacturing processes, and laser processing, etc. Surface engineering: deposition, treatment and characterization technologies.
