Deformation Processing of High Entropy Alloys offers an in-depth exploration of the mechanical properties and processing methods of high entropy alloys (HEAs), covering topics such as microstructural evolution, deformation mechanisms, alloy composition, processing techniques, and various applications. It provides an introduction to HEAs, outlining the differences between them and more traditional alloys, before diving into more complex subjects such as their stability and metastability, their crystal structures, FCC- and BCC-based HEAs, as well as thermomechanical treatments and their mechanical properties. Deformation processing techniques, solid state processing methods, and additive manufacturing of HEAs are each discussed as well, as are modeling and simulation approaches. A broad range of applications and limitations for these cutting-edge materials are also covered.
- Covers classification, properties, and behavior of multielement/high entropy alloys under deformation processing techniques
- Outlines modeling and simulation techniques for predicting material behavior and optimizing processing parameters
- Includes case studies and cutting-edge examples of high entropy alloys in various applications

Bharat Gwalani
Professor Bharat Gwalani is an Assistant Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at North Carolina State University. He received his Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) degree from the National Institute of Technology, Jaipur India in 2010, and his Ph.D. from the University of North Texas in 2017, both in Materials Science and Engineering. After his B.E. he worked in the steel industry for three years. Before starting at NC State in 2022, in 2019 Gwalani joined the DOE’s Office of Science’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and served as a senior materials scientist. His research focuses on a mechanistic understanding of material vulnerabilities under extreme environments, deformation-assisted modification of phase transformation pathways, and the development and characterization of advanced materials.

Carl C. Koch
Carl C. Koch is a Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at North Carolina State University. He received his Ph.D. in 1964 from Case Institute of Technology (now Case Western Reserve). Dr. Koch is the major researcher behind the discovery that metallic glasses could be produced through mechanical alloying. His research focuses on nanocrystalline materials, amorphization by mechanical attrition, mechanical alloying, rapid solidification, high temperature intermetallics, and oxide superconductors. He has published more than 230 papers and journal articles.
