It is now 10 years since the first edition of Engineering Coatings
by Stan Grainger appeared. The success of that edition, and the
developments in the area since its publication make this new
edition a valuable addition
to the literature on the subject.
This new edition describes the many methods by which surface
coatings or surface modification can be carried out to delay
surface degradation and prolong the useful life of engineering
components. Since surface technology has advanced in many areas,
new techniques such as the newer thermal spray processes and laser
surfacing are now covered and the book has been expanded to include
more coverage on corrosion.
Major changes have also taken place in health and safety
legislation, and the sections covering health and safety have been
entirely revised as a result. Engineering Coatings with its breadth
of coverage and sound basis in
industrial practice is an invaluable guide to methods which have
the potential to save money in many industries concerned with wear,
corrosion, welding and thermal spraying of engineering components.
Hydrocarbon production, gas recovery from shale, CO2 storage and
water management have a common scientific underpinning: multiphase
flow in porous media. This book provides a fundamental description
of multiphase flow through porous rock, with emphasis on the
understanding of displacement processes at the pore, or micron,
scale. Fundamental equations and principal concepts using energy,
momentum, and mass balance are developed, and the latest
developments in high-resolution three-dimensional imaging and
associated modelling are explored. The treatment is pedagogical,
developing sound physical principles to predict flow and recovery
through complex rock structures, while providing a review of the
recent literature. This systematic approach makes it an excellent
reference for those who are new to the field. Inspired by recent
research, and based on courses taught to thousands of students and
professionals from around the world, it provides the scientific
background necessary for a quantitative assessment of multiphase
subsurface flow processes, and is ideal for hydrology and
environmental engineering students, as well as professionals in the
hydrocarbon, water and carbon storage industries.
