An Introduction to Metallic Glasses and Amorphous Metals gives a background on the physics of materials, describing relevant experimental techniques. The book presents the necessary background in physics, thermodynamics, and the mechanics of solids, before moving on to cover elasticity, plasticity, fracture and the anelastic behavior of metallic glasses, relating these properties to chemical composition, atomic arrangement, microstructure, and methods of preparation. In addition, it compares the structure-property relationships specific to metallic glasses with polycrystalline metals and alloys and describes the properties and characteristics of metallic glasses. The general features and behavior of metallic glasses are also analyzed and summarized.
The book includes full derivations of theory and equations and presents a compendium of experimental methods used in materials science to characterize and study metallic glasses and amorphous solids. The title is a comprehensive resource for any researcher interested in the materials science of metallic glasses and amorphous materials.
- Presents the fundamental materials science needed to understand amorphous metals, metallic glasses and alloys
- Details manufacturing techniques for metallic glasses
- Gives the mechanical properties of metallic glasses
- Illustrates concepts with detailed tables and graphs
- Contains a compendium of experimental methods for use with amorphous metals and metallic glasses

About the Author
Dr. Gang Wang is full professor and Chair of Soil and Water Ecosystems Biophysics research group (SWEB) at China Agricultural University (CAU), and serves as the Dean of Department of Soil and Water Sciences at CAU, vice Chair of the Young Faculty Association of CAU, and associate Dean of ‘National Black Soil and Agriculture Research’, vice Chair of Soil Physics Division of Soil Science Society of China, Council Member of Soil Science Society of China, executive Editor of several scientific journals. Dr. Wang received his bachelor (2002) and master (2005) degrees in Chemistry from the University of Science and Technology of China, and PhD (2012) in Soil Biophysics at ETH Zurich, and then a post-doc research until the end of 2013. Dr. Wang started his independent research in Soil and Water Environmental Biophysics at CAU since 2014, and was approved as a full professor in 2016 (awarded CAU’s outstanding professor since 2019). Dr. Wang is currently supervising two Post-docs, seven doctoral students and six master students at CAU. The research interests of Wang’s group focus at the causes and consequences of microbial diversity; multi-scales interactions of microbes with environments, and links with soil and water source quality controls; mass flow dynamics and transport in the earth critical zone, and on interfaces between various spatial scales of physicochemical processes and biological activity in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, and impacts on ecological and agro-ecological processes and functions. Dr. Wang authored and co-authored over 40 refereed publications and over 40 invited presentations. Dr. Wang received research supports mainly from NSFC, USDA, National Key R&D Program of China, and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
