<p>Providing a thorough introduction, this second edition has been updated and expanded to cover new topics such as the numerical analytical techniques now being used in industry. This book should be of use to welding professionals and those studying metallurgy and materials science.</p>

Introduction to the Physical Metallurgy of Welding (Monographs in Materials)

Phase Transformations in Metals and Alloys

This text on phase transformations is for final year undergraduate and postgraduate students of metallurgy, materials science or engineering materials. It should also be useful for researchers working in industrial materials laboratories. The book is effectively in two parts: chapters 1-3 contain the background material necessary for understanding phase transformations: thermodynamics, kinetics, diffusion theory and the structure and properties of interfaces. Chapters 4-6 deal with specific transformations: solidification, diffusional transformations in solids and diffusionless transformations. Case studies of engineering alloys are included to provide a link between theory and practical reality.

In the ten years since this book was first published there have been many new developments in the metallurgical field. Rapidly solidified metals and glasses have come of age; new Al-Li alloys are now used in modern aircraft; microalloyed (structural) and high purity (pipeline) steels have become more sophisticated; radically new oxide-dispersed steels have ap peared; a number of new memory metals have been developed; the list could go on. In spite of this, the underlying principles governing all of these developments have obviously not changed over the years. This is really the strength of the present text book. From the beginning we aimed to speil out these principles in a nice, readable way, and one in which undergraduates could appreciate and be capable of developing for themselves. The present text is thus deliberately little changed from the original. We have, however, hopefully corrected any errors, expanded the lists of further reading, and perhaps, most importantly, included a complete set of solutions to exercises. We hope that the revised edition continues to be enjoyed and appreciated in the many Schools of Metallurgy, Materials Science and Engineering Materials we know to be using our text throughout the world. In completing this revised edition we are grateful to the many people, students and professors alike, who have written to us over the last decade.
