Product Description: The MRS Symposium Proceeding series is an internationally recognised reference suitable for researchers and practitioners.

Product Description: Interfaces control the properties of many technologically important materials. For many years, however, alloys have primarily been designed with the focus on optimizing bulk properties. Recently, much more attention has been paid to designing interfaces to improve the performance of materials...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: The MRS Symposium Proceeding series is an internationally recognised reference suitable for researchers and practitioners.

Product Description: The study of interfaces is one of the oldest areas of research in materials science. The presence of grain boundaries in materials has long been recognized, as has its crucial role in determining mechanical properties. Another long-recognized concept is that the properties of a surface are quite different from those of the bulk...read more

Product Description: The MRS Symposium Proceeding series is an internationally recognised reference suitable for researchers and practitioners.

Product Description: Metallurgists have long been concerned with failures, either potential or existing, that occur as a result of the interaction of materials with the environment. Because of this great interest there have been a number of books written on the topic but in most cases they have been concerned primarily with the environment rather than the materials...read more
