Reseña del libro "The Solidification of Metals and Alloys (en Inglés)"
The Solidification Of Metals And Alloys is a comprehensive guide to the science and engineering of solidification, written by the American Institute Of Mining. The book provides a detailed overview of the physical and chemical processes that occur during the solidification of metals and alloys, and covers a wide range of topics related to this field.The first section of the book introduces the basic principles of solidification, including the thermodynamics and kinetics of the process. The authors then go on to discuss the different types of solidification, including dendritic, eutectic, and peritectic solidification, and describe the various factors that can affect the solidification process, such as temperature, cooling rate, and composition.The second section of the book focuses on the microstructure and properties of solidified metals and alloys. The authors describe the different types of microstructures that can be produced during solidification, including grain structure, dendritic structure, and eutectic structure, and explain how these structures affect the mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties of the material.The final section of the book covers practical applications of solidification, including casting, welding, and additive manufacturing. The authors describe the different techniques used in these processes, and discuss the advantages and limitations of each method.Overall, The Solidification Of Metals And Alloys is an essential reference for anyone working in the field of solidification, including researchers, engineers, and materials scientists. The book provides a thorough and detailed overview of the science and engineering of solidification, and is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to understand this complex and important process.Additional Contributors Include J.
