Publisher's Synopsis
Materials that can be used for the construction or manufacturing of other products through an organized engineering activity are called engineering materials. Advancements in engineering materials drive the design and manufacture of new products. Some of the industrial processes surrounding such materials are processing techniques, quality analytic methods, material characterization and purification. These materials are tested for their properties and are accordingly divided into four essential categories: Metal alloys, Composite, Ceramic and Polymer. This book is compiled in such a way that it provides extensive information about the theories and practices that are applied to this field while also examining new methods and applications in close detail. This book includes some of the vital pieces of work being conducted across the world, on various topics related to engineering materials. With its detailed analyses and data, this book will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels.
