Synopsis

This series of three books reviews and documents the recent advances in research and application of this relatively new and emerging technology, the problems remaining to be solved and the directions of future research and development in surface engineering. Volume I, "Fundamentals of Coatings" considers principles of coatings/substrate design in high temperature and aqueous corrosion and wear environments, and scans the coatings spectrum from organic, through metallic to inorganic. Volume II covers "Process Technology" a subject that is central to surface engineering, and which holds particular promise for improvement in existing types of coatings performance, as well as in the design development and evaluation of totally new coating/substrate systems. Finally, Volume III "Engineering Applications", is dedicated to topics concerning the performance of coatings and surface treatments embracing six main areas - biomedical, aerospace, automotive, cutting tools and manufacture, power generation and marine applications. Together, these 3 volumes represent the latest information on the state of the art of surface engineering today, from an international authorship, and will prove essential reading for all those in academia and industry who need to keep abreast of the current status and likely future developments in this increasingly important field.
