This collection gives broad and up-to-date results in the research and development of materials characterization and processing. Coverage is well-rounded from minerals, metals, and materials characterization and developments in extraction to the fabrication and performance of materials. In addition, topics as varied as structural steels to electronic materials to plant-based composites are explored. The latest research presented in this wide area make this book both timely and relevant to the materials science field as a whole. The book explores scientific processes to characterize materials using modern technologies, and focuses on the interrelationships and interdependence among processing, structure, properties, and performance of materials. Topics covered include ferrous materials, non-ferrous materials, minerals, ceramics, clays, soft materials, method development, processing, corrosion, welding, solidification, composites, extraction, powders, nanomaterials, advanced materials, and several others.

The Microsoft Official Academic Courseware (MOAC) Office 2010 Series is the only Official Academic Course program. Microsoft Outlook 2010 is built from the ground-up around the MOS® certification objectives- making it a great way to learn all the workforce-oriented tasks required for certification. The Test Bank now offers greater flexibility and provides more than 75 questions and 3 projects per lesson. Furthermore, the latest edition's use of color in screen captures allows users to follow on screen much easier, as screen captures will look the exact same as the application. Additional projects throughout the book help users comprehend how a task is applied on the job.
