Welding Metallurgy, 3rd Edition, is the only complete compendium of recent developments in the science and practice of welding metallurgy, covering solid-state and fusion welding, with new chapters on microsegregation, macrosegregation, ductility-dip cracking, alloys resistant to creep, wear, and corrosion, and ternary-alloy solidification. It also includes new chapters on additive manufacturing, dissimilar-metal joining, magnesium alloys, and high-entropy alloys and metal-matrix nanocomposites. Format: Hardback Length: 688 pages Publication date: 26 November 2020 Publisher: John Wiley and Sons Ltd Welding metallurgy has made remarkable strides over the past two decades, with the release of the 3rd Edition of Welding Metallurgy. Written by Dr. Sindo Kou, this comprehensive resource covers solid-state and fusion welding, including resistance spot welding. It restructures and expands sections on Fusion Zones and Heat-Affected Zones, introducing new chapters on microsegregation, macrosegregation, ductility-dip cracking, alloys resistant to creep, wear, and corrosion, and ternary-alloy solidification. Partially Melted Zones now encompass liquation and cracking in friction stir welding and resistance spot welding. Additionally, new chapters on additive manufacturing, dissimilar-metal joining, magnesium alloys, and high-entropy alloys and metal-matrix nanocomposites have been added.Dr. Kou has provided the reader with an extensive list of citations to papers and articles, further enhancing their understanding of this complex topic. Undergraduate students, graduate students, researchers, and mechanical engineers alike will greatly benefit from this comprehensive resource.The new edition also introduces new theories and methods developed by Kou and his coworkers, including:Predicting the effect of filler metals on liquation crackingDeveloping an index and analytical equations for predicting susceptibility to solidification crackingConducting a test for susceptibility to solidification cracking and filler-metal effectStudying liquid-metal quenching during weldingExploring the mechanism behind solidification cracking Weight: 1766g Dimension: 210 x 261 x 36 (mm) ISBN-13: 9781119524816 Edition number: 3rd Edition
