Electrical Resistivity of Metals and Alloys

Klappentext Understanding the origin of electrical properties of alloys is critical to the development of new materials. Dr. Rossiter blends theoretical and experimental results without relying on detailed quantum mechanics. After introducing the basic concepts of atomic and magnetic correlations! he explains their microstructural consequences. Later chapters deal with the effects of such correlations on electrical resistivity. Examples and applications are given in discrete sections! which allow the uninterrupted development of theory for each specific problem. Zusammenfassung This comprehensive book is the first text devoted to the problem of understanding the electrical properties of metals and alloys. Dr Rossiter! well-known for his work on the electrical resistivity of alloys! has written a book which blends experimental results and theory! but does not assume a strong background in quantum mechanics.
