Metallurgy
Extractive, Mechanical and Physical Metallurgy

This new edition of Metallurgy covers all aspects of metallurgical engineering including the three areas of extractive, mechanical, and physical metallurgy. The textbook covers both theory and applications of metallurgical principles as applied to the conditioning, design, identification, selection, testing, and processing of metals and alloys. Topics include heat treatment, crystal structures, phase diagrams, materials standards, specific alloys, nondestructive and destructive testing, and fabrication methods. This new edition also covers the latest improvements in laboratory and industry techniques and equipment and adds new content valuable to metallurgy technicians and engineers.

Metallurgy includes many of the latest improvements in laboratory and industry techniques and equipment. New content valuable to technicians and engineers has been added.

This new and expanded content includes:
