Superplasticity in Metals and Ceramics

Klappentext A materials engineering monograph in the Cambridge Solid State Science Series. Zusammenfassung This 1997 book describes advances in the field of superplasticity. The authors emphasise the materials aspects of superplasticity and present commercial applications of superplastic forming. The book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers in materials science and engineering! especially those working in aerospace and automobile companies. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface; 1.
