Recrystallization and Related Annealing Phenomena by F.J. Humphreys,M. Hatherly Pdf
The annealing of deformed materials is of both technological importance and scientific interest. The phenomena have been most widely studied in metals, although they occur in all crystalline materials such as the natural deformation of rocks and the processing of technical ceramics. Research is mainly driven by the requirements of industry, and where appropriate, the book discusses the extent to which we are able to formulate quantitative, physically-based models which can be applied to metal-forming processes. The subjects treated in this book are all active research areas, and form a major part of at least four regular international conference series. However, there have only been two monographs published in recent times on the subject of recrystallization, the latest nearly 20 years ago. Since that time, considerable advances have been made, both in our understanding of the subject and in the techniques available to the researcher. The book covers recovery, recrystallization and grain growth in depth including specific chapters on ordered materials, two-phase alloys, annealing textures and annealing during and after hot working. Also contained are treatments of the deformed state and the structure and mobility of grain boundaries, technologically important examples and a chapter on computer simulation and modelling. The book provides a scientific treatment of the subject for researchers or students in Materials Science, Metallurgy and related disciplines, who require a more detailed coverage than is found in textbooks on physical metallurgy, and a more coherent treatment than will be found in the many conference proceedings and review articles.

Deformation Microstructures in Rocks by Soumyajit Mukherjee Pdf
Study of microstructures is an indispensable component of understanding structural geology of any terrain. A number of ‘new’ microscopic structures such as ‘flanking microstructures’, trapezoid-shaped mineral grains, reversal of ductile shear sense, micro-duplexes, V-pull aparts, and new minerals nucleating inside host minerals have recently been described in individual manuscripts. However, for the sake of brevity, microstructural papers cannot show all possible variation in their morphology. The proposed book aims to present these structures with attractive colour photographs. Each photomicrograph will have a comprehensive caption. The book also presents grain boundary migration, boudins, symptoms of metamorphic retrogression, and how well known shear sense indicators (S-C fabrics, mineral fish etc.) vary in morphology in serial-sections. The target audience is for graduate and postgraduate geosciences students and researchers of structural geology.
2D and 3D Grain Growth Modeling and Simulation by Luis Antonio Barraales Mora Pdf
Grain growth is the result of the collective migration of the grain boundaries of a polycrystal. Since grain boundaries are very complex elements, grain growth is complex as well. The mathematical description of the grain boundary requires four parameters in the two-dimensional case and eight parameters in the threedimensional one. The evolution of the microstructure in the course of grain growth is determined by the grain boundary mobility and energy; both properties depend on all the parameters for the definition of the grain boundary. Since triple lines, quadruple points and chemical composition play an important role, grain boundary becomes even more complex. The modeling of the grain growth requires the consideration of all the factors that affect grain growth. In the present dissertation, a Vertex Model for the simulation of two- and three-dimensional grain growth is implemented. The two-dimensional model was corroborated with classic basic theories on grain growth. Simulation on normal grain growth showed scaling behavior und a deviation of less than 1% when compared with the von Neumann-Mullins relationship. Furthermore, the model validated the theory on the finite mobility of the triple junctions from Gottstein and Shvindlerman and with this the model showed its applicability for the simulation of more complex granular aggregates with a finite triple junction mobility. The model also allows the use of experimental data. For instance, it was utilized for the reproduction of an experimental setting of magnetic influenced grain growth in pure titanium samples. The results of the simulation demonstrated that a magnetic field can determined the texture and grain growth kinetics of magnetic anisotropic metals. Simulation can also help to understand unexpected experimental results. For example, it was explained by means of molecular static and vertex model simulation the faceting of certain grain boundaries in aluminum. For this purpose, the grain boundary energy was obtained from molecular-static simulation and subsequently used in Vertex simulation. The results showed that the faceting of the grain boundaries can be attributed to the anisotropy of the grain boundary energy with the inclination angle. In turn, the 3D model was utilized to study the effect of the boundary junctions on three-dimensional grain growth. For this purpose a special configuration that allows the steady-state motion of the grain boundaries was used. The simulation results showed a very good agreement with the theoretical expectations and demonstrated that the finite mobility of the quadruple junctions can drag grain boundary migration. However, it was also found that triple lines drag more effectively grain growth.
Grain Boundary Segregation in Metals by Pavel Lejcek Pdf
Grain boundaries are important structural components of polycrystalline materials used in the vast majority of technical applications. Because grain boundaries form a continuous network throughout such materials, their properties may limit their practical use. One of the serious phenomena which evoke these limitations is the grain boundary segregation of impurities. It results in the loss of grain boundary cohesion and consequently, in brittle fracture of the materials. The current book deals with fundamentals of grain boundary segregation in metallic materials and its relationship to the grain boundary structure, classification and other materials properties.
Physical Foundations of Materials Science by Günter Gottstein Pdf
In this vivid and comprehensible introduction to materials science, the author expands the modern concepts of metal physics to formulate basic theory applicable to other engineering materials, such as ceramics and polymers. Written for engineering students and working engineers with little previous knowledge of solid-state physics, this textbook enables the reader to study more specialized and fundamental literature of materials science. Dozens of illustrative photographs, many of them transmission electron microscopy images, plus line drawings, aid developing a firm appreciation of this complex topic. Hard-to-grasp terms such as "textures" are lucidly explained - not only the phenomenon itself, but also its consequences for the material properties. This excellent book makes materials science more transparent.
This book explores the possibility of using micro/nanostructures formed on the doped ice surface as a novel separation platform. In addition, it provides comprehensive information on the nature of freeze-concentrated solutions (FCSs) and the ice/FCS interface, which play important roles in the natural environment and industrial processes alike. The book proposes a novel size-selective separation approach using channels formed on the doped ice surface. The separation is based on the physical interaction of analytes with channel walls, which is controlled by varying the channel width through temperature and dopant concentration changes. It also shows the precise control of the channel width to be in a range of 200 nm–4 μm and demonstrates the size-selective separation of microspheres, cells, and DNA. The physicochemical properties of FCSs are measured to reveal the nature of the ice/FCS interface, and the zeta potentials of ice are measured by determining EOF rates in a microchannel fabricated in the ice. The deprotonation at OH dangling bonds and adsorption of ions are also discussed. The viscosities of FCSs confined in micro/nanospaces are evaluated by means of two spectroscopic methods. When an FCS is confined in small spaces surrounded by ice, the viscosity increases compared to that in a bulk solution. Interestingly, this viscosity enhancement occurs even though its size is on the micrometer scale. These parameters are essential to discussing the unique phenomena occurring in FCSs. This book provides an explanation of the scientific processes taking place in FCSs, and reveals the potential that frozen solutions hold as innovative micro/nanofluidic devices and reaction platforms.
Diffusion in Crystalline Solids addresses some of the most active areas of research on diffusion in crystalline solids. Topics covered include measurement of tracer diffusion coefficients in solids, diffusion in silicon and germanium, atom transport in oxides of the fluorite structure, tracer diffusion in concentrated alloys, diffusion in dislocations, grain boundary diffusion mechanisms in metals, and the use of the Monte Carlo Method to simulate diffusion kinetics. This book is made up of eight chapters and begins with an introduction to the measurement of diffusion coefficients with radioisotopes. The following three chapters consider diffusion in materials of substantial technological importance such as silicon and germanium. Atomic transport in oxides of the fluorite structure is described, and diffusion in concentrated alloys, including intermetallic compounds, is analyzed. The next two chapters delve into diffusion along short-circuiting paths, focusing on the effect of diffusion down dislocations on the form of the tracer concentration profile. The book also discusses the mechanisms of diffusion in grain boundaries in metals by invoking considerable work done on grain-boundary structure. The last two chapters are concerned with computer simulation, paying particular attention to machine calculations and the Monte Carlo method. The book concludes by exploring the fundamental atomic migration process and presenting some state-of-the-art calculations for defect energies and the topology of the saddle surface. Students and researchers of material science will find this book extremely useful.
