9780750680844: Steels: Microstructure and Properties

Inhaltsangabe

Steels represent the most widely-used metallic alloy, possessing a wide range of microstructures and mechanical properties. By examining the mechanical properties of steels in conjunction with microstructure this book provides a valuable description of the development and behaviour of these materials - the very foundation of their widespread use. Updated throughout and including new chapters on nanostructured steels, and new alloys and technologies for the energy and automobile industries, the book is clearly written and illustrated, with extensive bibliographies and real-life examples. An essential reference, both compact and readily comprehensive, for metallurgists and engineers in both industry and academia.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Harry Bhadeshia is the Tata Steel Professor of Physical Metallurgy at the University of Cambridge, UK. His research is concerned with the theory of solid-state transformations in metals, particularly multicomponent steels, with the goal of creating novel alloys and processes with the minimum use of resources. He is the author or co-author of more than 600 research papers and 6 books. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society, Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, the National Academy of Engineering (India), and the American Welding Society. In 2015 he was appointed a Knight Bachelor in the Queen’s 2015 Birthday Honours for services to Science and Technology.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The complete text and reference on the microstructure and properties of steels

Steel has the wonderful ability to adapt to changing requirements. It is no wonder that it has seen off challenges from many other materials, and thrives today as arguably the most successful of all engineering materials.

By examining the properties of iron and its alloys in conjunction with microstructure, this book provides a valuable guide to the development and behaviour of these metals. Updated throughout, this edition includes new material on nanostructured steels, new alloys and technologies for the energy and automobile industries, including TRIP-assisted alloys and the latest impressive creep and heat-resistant steels for increased power generation efficiency.

Covers the microstructure, mechanical behaviour and properties of steels, the most widely-used metallic alloy
Thoroughly updated with new materials and technologies, plus a new accompanying set of exercises and solutions for teaching use
Respected author team who bring their wide experience to students and professionals

Steels is an essential reference for metallurgists, physicists and engineers in both industry and academia.

HKDH Bhadeshia is Professor of Physical Metallurgy at the University of Cambridge, UK, and Adjunct Professor at the Graduate Institute of Ferrous Technology, POSTECH, South Korea. RWK Honeycombe is Emeritus Professor of Metallurgy at the University of Cambridge, UK.
