Kinetics in Materials Science and Engineering

Beschreibung

This book introduces the kinetics of materials, emphasizing reactions and phase transformations of importance in industrial applications and reflecting the full breadth of the field, from metals, ceramics, and electronic materials to polymers, biomaterials, and composites. The author explicitly avoids "black box" equations, providing derivations

Readey is University Emeritus Professor of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines, where he served as the H. F. Coors Distinguished Professor of Ceramic Engineering and Director of the Colorado Center for Advanced Ceramics for seventeen years. Prior to that, he served as chairman of the Department of Ceramic Engineering at Ohio State University. He has been performing research on kinetic processes in materials for almost fifty years and teaching the subject for over thirty years. Before entering academia, he was a program manager in the Division of Physical Research of what is now the Department of Energy, where he was responsible for funding materials research in universities and national laboratories. Earlier, he was also group leader in the Research Division of the Raytheon Company and in the Materials Division of Argonne National Laboratory. He had been active in the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) for a number of years representing TMS (The Mining, Minerals, and Materials Society) and served on several government committees including the Space Sciences Board and the National Materials Advisory Board of the National Academy of Sciences. He is a member of several professional societies and is a fellow of ASM International (formerly the American Society of Metals) and a fellow, distinguished life member, and Past-President of the American Ceramic Society. Dr. Readey's research has involved gaseous and aqueous corrosion of ceramics, the effect of atmospheres on sintering, the properties of porous ceramics, processing and properties of ceramic-metal composites, and the electronic properties of compounds, particularly transparent conducting oxides and microwave and infrared materials. He advised 29 P
