The cover of this iteration (previous, 1989; first, 1984) features a snowflake-like dendrite, as typically seen on the surface of a polished section of a solidified alloy. Kurtz (materials, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lusanne) and Fisher (editor, Diffusion and Defect Data, Scitec Publications; Uetikon- Zurich, Switzerland) explain how such solidification phenomena play an important role in many of the processes used in fields ranging from production engineering to solid-state physics, before proceeding to the specifics of: atom transfer and morphological instability at the solid/liquid interface, solidification microstructures, and solute redistribution. A cursory overview can be derived from the text and figure captions; appendices supply the mathematical derivations and physical properties. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Solidification and Crystallization Processing in Metals and Alloys Hasse Fredriksson KTH, Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden Ulla Ã…kerlind University of Stockholm, Sweden Solidification or crystallization occurs when atoms are transformed from the disordered liquid state to the more ordered solid state, and is fundamental to metals processing. Conceived as a companion volume to the earlier works, Materials Processing during Casting (2006) and Physics of Functional Materials (2008), this book analyzes solidification and crystallization processes in depth. Starting from the thermodynamic point of view, it gives a complete description, taking into account kinetics and mass transfer, down to the final structure. Importantly, the book shows the relationship between the theory and the experimental results. Topics covered include: Fundamentals of thermodynamics Properties of interfaces Nucleation Crystal growth - in vapours, liquids and melts Heat transport during solidification processes Solidification structures - faceted, dendritic, eutectic and peritectic Metallic glasses and amorphous alloy melts Solidification and Crystallization Processing in Metals and Alloys features many solved examples in the text, and exercises (with answers) for students. Intended for Masters and PhD students as well as researchers in Materials Science, Engineering, Chemistry and Metallurgy, it is also a valuable resource for engineers in industry.
