Synopsis

The new edition of this standard textbook follows its predecessors in providing comprehensive coverage of the key materials and processes for undergraduate and graduate students of metallurgy, as well as those attending specialist welding courses. It is also a source of reference for engineers and metallurgists concerned with joining processes. The text has been revised throughout, and a new chapter has been included dealing with metal/ceramic joining and microwelding. is also increased coverage of the development of steelmaking techniques that affect weldability. "Metallurgy of Welding" covers the joining of metals, both to other metals and to non-metals including ceramics and glasses. The joining processes covered include soldering, brazing, solid-phase welding and fusion welding. The fusion welding of steel is covered in depth, and non-ferrous metals, glasses and ceramics are also considered. A chapter is also devoted to the topic of the service behaviour of weldments. This book should be of interest to senior undergraduate and graduate students and practising engineers in materials engineering and manufacturing production engineering.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

A new edition of a well established and respected textbook from an author who is a recognised authority in this field. Joining techniques are one of the key technologies in materials engineering and this book provides comprehensive coverage of the cubject. It is intended for undergraduate and graduate students of metallurgy, as well as those attending specialist welding courses.

It is also a valuable source of reference for practising engineers and metallurgists concerned with joining processes.
The text covers the metallurgical changes that take place during the welding process, the properties of welded joints, defects associated with welding and the behaviour of welded joints in service. There is a chapter devoted to joints between metals and ceramics, and on the use of structural adhesives. The various techniques used in microwelding and the joining of solid-state devices to printed circuit boards are briefly described.

In addition to revising and updating the text throughout the author has made some specific alterations and additions to the book...

Brittle and ductile behaviour of solids, ductile francture, and the velocity
of crack propogation are now included in the section on Fracture

Friction stir welding in now included
