This one-of-a-kind reference examines conventional and advanced methodologies for the quantitative evaluation of properties and characterization of microstructures in metals. It presents methods for uncovering valuable information including precipitate mechanisms, kinetics, stability, crystallographic orientation, the effects of thermo-mechanical processing, and residual stress.

Biography
D. Scott MacKenzie, George E. Totten
"The text does a nice job of detailing various experimental methods and providing examples of their application on commercial alloys…I recommend this reference for practicing engineers and scientists who require general overviews of common characterization techniques and illustrations of what information they can obtain from those techniques. I also recommend it for the outstanding atlas of microstructures provided for aluminum- and iron-based alloys…[which] will prove to be a valuable addition to any engineering laboratory."
