Book Order Disorder Transformations in Alloys

Download or read book Order Disorder Transformations in Alloys written by H. Warlimont and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains 18 invited contributions to the first Inter national Symposium on Order-Disorder Transformations in Alloys+. They cover the major aspects of this group of phase transformations. Although structural order-disorder transformations have been investigated for over 50 years the invited papers, the research papers - whose titles and authors are listed in the appendix - and the discussions at the Symposium have demonstrated very active continued interest and con siderable recent progress in the subject. This is true for theoretical work as weIl as for experimental studies and for the development of materials whose properties result from order-disorder transformations. + Some major national conferences on ordering were held in the USA and in the USSR in recent years; the proceedings are available in the following pUblications: Local Atomic Arrangements Studied by X-Ray Diffraction, Gordon & Breach, New York 1966 2 Ordered Alloys, Claitor's Publ.

Book The Theory of Transformations in Metals and Alloys

Download or read book The Theory of Transformations in Metals and Alloys written by John Christian and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2002-12-10 with total page 1202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a classic reference text for metallurgists, material scientists and crystallographers. The first edition was published in 1965. The first part of that edition was revised and re-published in 1975 and again in 1981. The present two-part set represents the eagerly awaited full revision by the author of his seminal work, now published as Parts I and II. Professor Christian was one of the founding fathers of materials science and highly respected worldwide. The new edition of his book deserves a place on the bookshelf of every materials science and engineering department. Suitable thermal and mechanical treatments will produce extensive rearrangements of the atoms in metals and alloys, and corresponding marked variations in physical and chemical properties. This book describes how such changes in the atomic configuration are effected, and discusses the associated kinetic and crystallographic features. It deals with areas such as lattice geometry, point defects, dislocations, stacking faults, grain and interphase boundaries, solid solutions, diffusion, etc. The first part covers the general theory while the second part is concerned with descriptions of specific types of transformations.

Book Effect of Crystal Transformation and Atomic Ordering on Friction and Wear of Two Cobalt base Alloys in Vacuum

Download or read book Effect of Crystal Transformation and Atomic Ordering on Friction and Wear of Two Cobalt base Alloys in Vacuum written by William A. Brainard and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of crystal and order-disorder transformations on friction and wear for Be-Co and FeCo alloys were studied in sliding friction experiments in vacuum at elevated temperatures. The results show that friction increases fourfold for the beryllium-cobalt alloy during transformation and that friction remains high until the reverse or cooling transformation occurs. The friction and wear of Be-Co are markedly superior to 440-C stainless steel. The order-disorder transformation in FeCo increases friction by a factor of 30 and also significantly increases wear. Increased sliding speed and loading affect the transformation. The friction behavior during heating is in good agreement with the type of order-temperature relation in FeCo.

Book Reconstructive Phase Transitions

Download or read book Reconstructive Phase Transitions written by Pierre Tol‚dano and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1996 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the phenomenological theory of first-order structural phase transitions, with a special emphasis on reconstructive transformations in which a group-subgroup relationship between the symmetries of the phases is absent. It starts with a unified presentation of the current approach to first-order phase transitions, using the more recent results of the Landau theory of phase transitions and of the theory of singularities. A general theory of reconstructive phase transitions is then formulated, in which the structures surrounding a transition are expressed in terms of density-waves, providing a natural definition of the transition order-parameters, and a description of the corresponding phase diagrams and relevant physical properties. The applicability of the theory is illustrated by a large number of concrete examples pertaining to the various classes of reconstructive transitions: allotropic transformations of the elements, displacive and order-disorder transformations in metals, alloys and related structures, crystal-quasicrystal transformations.

Book Statics and Dynamics of Alloy Phase Transformations

Download or read book Statics and Dynamics of Alloy Phase Transformations written by Patrice E.A. Turchi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 725 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of phase transformations in substitutional alloys, including order disorder phenomena and structural transformations, plays a crucial role in understanding the physical and mechanical properties of materials, and in designing alloys with desired technologically important characteristics. Indeed, most of the physical properties, including equilibrium properties, transport, magnetic, vibrational as well as mechanical properties of alloys are often controlled by and are highly sensitive to the existence of ordered compounds and to the occurrence of structural transformations. Correspondingly, the alloy designer facing the task of processing new high-performance materials with properties that meet specific industrial applications must answer the following question: What is the crystalline structure and the atomic configuration that an alloy may exhibit at given temperature and concentration? Usually the answer is sought in the phase-diagram of a relevant system that is often determined experimentally and does not provide insight to the underlying mechanisms driving phase stability. Because of the rather tedious and highly risky nature of developing new materials through conventional metallurgical techniques, a great deal of effort has been expended in devising methods for understanding the mechanisms contrOlling phase transformations at the microscopic level. These efforts have been bolstered through the development of fully ab initio, accurate theoretical models, coupled with the advent of new experimental methods and of powerful supercomputer capabilities.
