Metal-Matrix Composites: Advances in Processing, Characterization, Performance and Analysis

(The Minerals, Metals & Materials Series) 1st ed. Edition

by T. S. Srivatsan (Editor), Pradeep K. Rohatgi (Editor), Simona Hunyadi Murph (Editor)

This collection brings together engineers, scientists, scholars, and entrepreneurs to present their novel and innovative contributions in the domain specific to metal-matrix composites and on aspects specific to processing, characterization, mechanical behavior, measurements, failure behavior, and kinetics governing microstructural influences on failure by fracture. Topics include but are not limited to:

• Metals and metal-matrix composites

• Nano-metal based composites

• Intermetallic-based composites

Contributions in the above topics connect to applications in industry-relevant areas: automotive; nuclear and clean energy; aerospace; failure analysis; biomedical and healthcare; and heavy equipment, machinery, and goods.
