Phase Diagrams: Key Topics in Materials Science and Engineering

Phase Diagrams: Key Topics in Materials Science and Engineering provides an introduction to alloy phase diagrams and their use. It identifies points, lines, and regions of interest on a typical binary phase diagram and explains how they reveal the alloy phases present at different temperatures and compositions. It describes how phase diagrams are constructed and demonstrates widely used methods for determining phase compositions, phase fractions, and microstructure. It also presents examples of computationally generated CALPHAD phase diagrams and includes an appendix with review problems and worked solutions.
