Elements of Metallurgy and Engineering Alloys B-ASM-008

Elements of Metallurgy and Engineering Alloys provides thorough and systematic coverage on both basic metallurgy and the practical engineering aspects of metallic material selection and application.

Coverage includes:

• practical information on the engineering properties and applications of steels, cast irons, nonferrous alloys, and metal matrix composites
• concise overviews and practical implications of metallic structure, imperfections, deformation, and phase transformations
• process metallurgy of solidification and casting, recovery, recrystallization and grain growth, precipitation hardening
• mechanical deformation during processing and in-service properties of fatigue, fracture, and creep; and physical properties and corrosion
