Sommario/riassunto

"Physical Metallurgy and Advanced Materials " is the latest edition of the classic book previously published as "Modern Physical Metallurgy & Materials Engineering." Fully revised and expanded, this new edition develops on its predecessor by including detailed coverage of the latest topics in metallurgy and material science. Intended for senior undergraduates and graduate students it emphasises the science, production and applications of engineering materials, and is suitable for all post-introductory materials science courses. "Key Features: " * Renowned coverage of metals and alloys, plus other materials classes including ceramics and polymers. *Updated coverage of sports materials, biomaterials and nanomaterials. *Covers new materials characterization techniques, including scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and nanoindentation. *Easy to navigate with contents split into logical groupings: fundamentals,



metals and alloys, nonmetals, processing and applications. *Detailed worked examples with real-world applications. *Rich pedagogy includes extensive homework exercises, lecture slides and full online solutions manual (coming).
