Science and Technology of Rapid Solidification and Processing

This book reviews the major advances made in recent years in both the theoretical and experimental areas of rapid solidification technology and processing. Topics covered include: processing technologies of rapid solidification and thermodynamic properties; thermodynamics of metastable alloys, relaxation, diffusion, magnetic and electric properties; the structural characterization of supercooled melts, and ultrafine polycrystalline materials. <br/>
