Solidification and Crystallization Processing in Metals and
Alloys

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 Ph D students
as well as researchers in Materials Science, Engineering, Chemistry
and Metallurgy, it is also a valuable resource for engineers in
industry.
