This textbook explains the physics of phase transformation and
associated constraints from a metallurgical or materials science
point of view, based on many topics including crystallography, mass
transport by diffusion, thermodynamics, heat transfer and related
temperature gradients, thermal deformation, and even fracture
mechanics. The work presented emphasizes solidification and related
analytical models based on heat transfer. This corresponds with the
most fundamental physical event of continuous evolution of latent
heat of fusion for directional or non-directional liquid-to-solid
phase transformation at a specific interface with a certain
geometrical shape, such as planar or curved front. Dr. Perez
introduces mathematical and engineering approximation schemes for
describing the phase transformation, mainly during solidification
of pure metals and alloys. Giving clear definitions and
explanations of theoretical concepts and full detail of derivation
of formulae, this interdisciplinary volume is ideal for graduate
and upper-level undergraduate students in applied science, and
professionals in the metal making and surface reconstruction
industries.
The second edition of this textbook includes a refined presentation
of concepts in each chapter, additional examples; new problems and
sections, such as conformal mapping and mechanical behavior of
wood; while retaining all the features of the original book. The
material included in this book is based upon the development of
analytical and numerical procedures pertinent to particular fields
of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) and plastic fracture
mechanics (PFM), including mixed-mode-loading interaction. The
mathematical approach undertaken herein is coupled with a brief
review of several fracture theories available in cited references,
along with many color images and figures. Dynamic fracture
mechanics is included through the field of fatigue and Charpy
impact testing.
The second edition of this textbook includes refined text in each
chapter, new sections on corrosion of steel-reinforced concrete and
on cathodic protection of steel reinforced bars embedded in
concrete, and some new solved examples. The book introduces
mathematical and engineering approximation schemes for describing
the thermodynamics and kinetics of electrochemical systems, which
are the essence of corrosion science, in addition to
electrochemical corrosion, forms of corrosion and mechanisms of
corrosion. This approach should capture the reader's attention on
the complexity of corrosion. Thus, the principles of
electrochemistry and electrochemical cells are subsequently
characterized in simple electrolytes from a thermodynamics point of
view.
