Synopsis

This revised third edition of a bestselling metallurgy text examines the behaviour of materials under stress and their reaction to a variety of hostile environments. It covers the entire scope of mechanical metallurgy, from an understanding of the continuum description of stress and strain, through crystalline and defect mechanisms of flow and fracture, and on to a consideration of major mechanical property tests and the basic metalworking process. It has been updated throughout, SI units have been added, and end-of-chapter study questions are included.

About this title

Book Description:

This is the SI adaptation of the successful U.S. text providing comprehensive coverage of the subject of mechanical metallurgy. For the third edition the topics of fracture mechanics and fatigue of metals have been substantially expanded. Chapter 11 is devoted entirely to fracture mechanics while Chapter 12 now stresses low-cycle fatigue of metals and design approaches based on LSF. Chapter 13 has been completely rewritten incorporating more material on creep deformation mechanism and new discussions of deformation mechanism maps super plasticity and creep-fatigue interaction. New topics introduced include the finite element method fractography normality of the yield surface computer-aided manufacturing and the instrumented Charpy test.
