Zusatztext "? [A] very useful resource for materials science and metallurgy researchers in academic institutions." - E-Streams! Vol. 7! No. 10! Oct. 2004 Informationen zum Autor L.L. Rokhlin Klappentext One of the remarkable features of alloys is the significant difference made by individual rare-earth metals when they are added to magnesium. This second edition of Magnesium Alloys Containing Rare-Earth Metals: Structure and Properties describes the constitution and properties of magnesium-based alloys containing rare-earth metals and presents the dependence of their characteristics on their atomic number and place in the periodic table. This volume consists mainly of research from Russian scientists but also contains western literature making it a valuable reference tool for students, researchers and professionals in materials science and metallurgy. Zusammenfassung This monograph describes the constitution and properties of magnesium-based alloys containing rare-earth metals. The dependence of their characteristics on their atomic number and place in the periodic table are presented and new ideas for rare-earth metals as alloying additives to magnesium are discussed.
