Contents:
Metals. Metal structures -- Phase diagrams 1 -- Phase diagrams 2 -- Case studies in phase diagrams -- Driving force for structural change -- Kinetics 1: diffusive transformations -- Kinetics 2: nucleation -- Kinetics 3: displacive transformations -- Case studies in phase transformations -- Light alloys -- Steels 1: carbon steels -- Steels 2: alloy steels -- Case studies in steels -- Processing metals 1 -- Processing metals 2. -- Ceramics. Ceramic structures -- Mechanical properties of ceramics -- Processing ceramics -- Cement and concrete -- Case studies in ceramics. -- Polymers. Polymer structures -- Mechanical properties of polymers -- Processing polymers -- Case studies in polymers. -- Composites. Properties of composites and foams -- Wood structure and properties -- Case studies in composites. -- Symbols and formulae.
Summary: This is a textbook for more advanced students of materials science and mechanical engineering, and is the follow-up to its companion text, Engineering Materials 1: An Introduction to Properties, Applications & Design. This book develops a detailed understanding of the fundamental properties of engineering materials, how they are controlled by processing, formed, joined and finished, and how all of these factors influence the selection and design of materials in real-world engineering applications. Each chapter is designed to cover the content of one 50-minute lecture. Includes case studies, worked examples, homework problems, updated illustrations, and numerous detailed case studies throughout. It allows students to see the practical applications of the material just presented in their lecture. Online support materials include a set of interactive materials science tutorials, allowing students to test their knowledge of materials science in an interactive way.
