Fully revised and expanded, Castings Second Edition covers the latest developments in the understanding of the role of the liquid metal in controlling the properties of cast materials, and indeed, of all metallic materials that have started in the cast form. Practising foundry engineers, designers, and students will find the revealing insights into the behaviour of castings essential in developing their inderstanding and practice. John Campbell OBE is a leading international figure in the castings industry, with over four decades of experience. He is the originator of the Cosworth Casting Process, the pre-eminent production process for automobile cylinder heads and blocks. He is also co-inventor of both the Baxi Casting Process (now owned by Alcoa) developed in the UK, and the newly emerging Alotech Casting Process in the USA. He is Professor of Casting Technology at the University of Birmingham, UK. * New edition of this internationally respected reference and textbook for engineers and students; * Develops understanding of the concepts and practice of casting operations; * 'Castings' is the key work on castings technology and process metallurgy, and an essential resource on contemporary developments and thinking on the new metallurgy of cast alloys; * Revised and updated throughout, with new material on subjects including surface turbulence, the new theory of entrainment defects including folded film defects, plus the latest concepts of alloy theory 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aFounding 650 0$aMetal castings 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 776 1 $cOriginal$z0750647906$z9780750647908$w(DLC) 2003042219$w(OCoLC)51613970 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750647908$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 856 42$zPublisher description$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/description/els031/2003042219.html 856 41$zTable of contents$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/els031/2003042219.html 907 $a.b13651183$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003223489707536 996 $aCastings principles$91754420 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$gmau$h0$i0
