The book Mechanical Metallurgy is a revised third edition of the best seller metallurgy text which examines the behaviour of materials under stress and how they react when they come in contact with different aggressive environments. The book is published in the year 2013.
Synopsis
The book mainly covers all the mechanical metallurgical aspects such as understanding of continuum description of strain and stress via crystalline and defect mechanisms of fracture and flow. The book is lucid in English and has been updated as per the latest syllabus. The SI units also have been added and each chapter comprises of study questions which have been picked by the teachers who have contributed to the making of the book. There are also numerous appendixes as well as suggestive questions which students can fall back just to check how well understand the chapters. The book is presented in lucid language and is one of the most trusted reference books to cater to.
