Materials Science and Technology A Comprehensive Treatment Edited by R.W. Cahn, P. Haasen, E.J. Kramer The 18-volume series ?Materials Science and Tehnology? is the first in-depth, topic-oriented reference work devoted to this growing interdisciplinary field. A compendium of current. state-of-the-art information, it covers the most important classes of materials: metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, semiconductors, and composites. Each volume deals with properties, processing, applications, or general phenomena associated with these materials. Edited by internationally renowned figures in materials science, this series is sure to establish itself as a seminal work. Volume 15: This volume focuses on the practical processing of metals and alloys, encompassing well-established metallurgical processes as well as newer technologies. Topics included are: solidification processing ? powder metallurgy ? electrodeposition of metals and alloys ? rapid solidification ? laser surface modification ? mechanical milling and alloying ? ion implantation and ion-beam mixing ? epitaxy of metals ? metallic multilayers ? recrystallization and recovery ? measurement and control of texture ? solidification processing under microgravity ? cluster assembly of nanophase materials.
