Thermo-Mechanical Processing of Metallic Materials

Modern Metallurgy Materials are widely used in infrastructure, plans, skyscrapers, micro-electronic devises, nuclear and others. other energy plants. Many of the alloys used for these applications have undergone major transformations over the last 20 years. These transformations have a minimum cost to the user. In many cases, if not, they have transformed into high quality components.

Divided into three sections, the first section covers the microstructural science of the subject, including the microstructure. The second section deals with the metallic mechanical element. The concluding section illustrates the development of TMP in the future.

This book aims to fill the gap with the use of modern case studies.
