Description: For many years,
various editions of Smallman's Modern Physical Metallurgy have served
throughout the world as a standard undergraduate textbook on metals and alloys.
In 1995, it was rewritten and enlarged to encompass the related subject of
materials science and engineering and appeared under the title Metals &
Materials: Science, Processes, Applications offering a comprehensive amount of
a much wider range of engineering materials.
Coverage ranged
from pure elements to superalloys, from glasses to engineering ceramics, and
from everyday plastics to in situ composites, Amongst other favourable reviews,
Professor Bhadeshia of Cambridge University commented: "Given the amount
of work that has obviously gone into this book and its extensive comments, it is
very attractively priced. It is an excellent book to be recommend strongly for
purchase by undergraduates in materials-related subjects, who should benefit
greatly by owning a text containing so much knowledge."
The book now
includes new chapters on materials for sports equipment (golf, tennis,
bicycles, skiing, etc.) and biomaterials (replacement joints, heart valves,
tissue repair, etc.) - two of the most exciting and rewarding areas in current
materials research and development. As in its predecessor, numerous examples
are given of the ways in which knowledge of the relation between fine structure
and properties has made it possible to optimise the service behaviour of
traditional engineering materials and to develop completely new and exciting
classes of materials.
Special
consideration is given to the crucial processing stage that enables materials
to be produced as marketable commodities. Whilst attempting to produce a useful
and relatively concise survey of key materials and their interrelationships,
the authors have tried to make the subject accessible to a wide range of
readers, to provide insights into specialised methods of examination and to
convey the excitement of the atmosphere in which new materials are conceived
and developed.
