This is an excellent resource and introductory guide on the practical ""whys and therefore"" of heat treatment.

Intended to help readers reduce the unwanted costs and ramifications of friction, wear, and erosion in tribosystems by recommending engineering materials that have proven to be successful in dealing with these issues. Includes recommendations on which tool materials work best, the most abrasion-resistant plastics, and where should ceramics be used.

A resource for failure analysts, engineers, and technical personnel who are looking to identify the root cause(s) of failures and to prevent future failures. It contains divisions devoted to the practice of failure analysis, tools and techniques, fatigue and fracture, environmental and corrosion-related failures, wear failures, and distortion.

Focuses on the basic principles and options available for the application of polymers and natural organics to powder processing. The book links the material, powder characteristics, forming process, and product attributes together to give the first unified treatment on polymer assisted powder processing.

Addresses the current and rapidly expanding importance of additive manufacturing (AM). The volume provides the latest knowledge in materials, processes, and applications of AM, written by the leading experts in research and industry.

Prepared by a team of experts, this updated reference offers the latest information on advanced failure analysis tools and techniques, illustrated with numerous real-life examples. This new edition will help engineers improve their ability to verify, isolate, uncover, and identify the root cause of failures.

Examines more than 100 cases of failure and the process by which they were analyzed, diagnosed, and resolved. The book provides expert analysis and insight on a variety of materials, failure modes, root causes, and analytical techniques. It includes sections dedicated to specific components and industries.

Provides detailed technical information that will enable readers to select and use analytical techniques that are appropriate for their problem. Each article describing a characterization technique begins with an overview of the method in simplified terms and lists common applications as well as limitations.

Provides new and expanded coverage on the metallurgy, processing, fabrication, properties, and performance of aluminum alloys. The aluminum alloy datasheets are designed for easy look up with details on key alloy metallurgy, processing effects on properties, and fabrication characteristics.
