Semi-solid Processing of Alloys by David H. Kirkwood, Michel Suéry, Plato Kapranos, Helen V. Atkinson, Kenneth P. Young.

This book presents the state of the art concerning the fundamental aspects of semi-solid processing of alloys and composites, together with the industrial applications. The fundamental aspects include both the microstructure development and characterization, and the rheology of alloy slurries with s...
