Request a sales quoteDescribes the deformation-mechanisms, and the construction of maps which show the field of stress, temperature and strain-rate over which each is dominant. Presents, with extensive documentation, maps for more than 40 materials covering pure metals, ferrous and non-ferrous alloys, covalent elements, alkali halides, carbides and a large number of oxides. Further developments (including transient behaviour, the influence of pressure, behaviour at very low and very high strain rates) and the problem of scaling laws are described and a series of useful case studies are included to illustrate the application of the maps to engineering problems.
Of interest to the researcher, engineer and senior student in metallurgy, materials science and engineering, also to the geologist and geophysicist.
(partial) Deformation mechanisms and deformation-mechanism maps. Rate equations. Construction of the maps. The f.c.c. metals: Ni, Cu, Ag, Al, Pb and the -Fe. The b.c.c. transition metals: W, V, Cr, Nb, Mo, Ta, and #-Fe. The hexagonal metals: Zn, Cd, Mg and Ti. Non ferrous alloys: nichromes, T-D nickels and nimonics. Pure iron and ferrous alloys. The covalent elements, Si and Ge. The alkali halides: NaCl and LiF. The transition-metal carbides: ZrC and TiC. Oxides with the rock-salt structure: MgO, CoO and FeO. Oxides with the fluorite structure: UO2 and ThO2. Oxides with the #-alumina structure: Al2O3, Cr2O3 and Fe2O3. Olivines and spinels: Mg2SiO4 and MgAl2O4. Ice, H2O. Further refinements: transient behaviour; very high and very low strain rates; high pressure. Scaling laws and isomechanical groups. Applications of deformation-mechanism maps. Materials index.
