Phase Transformations in Metals and Alloys Second Ed. Summary:By David A. Porter, Kenneth E. Easterling
Rating: 5 This is an excellent college/graduate level textbook. It covers all aspects of phase transformations. The book treats phase transformations in its broadest sense, beginning with 250 pages of background physical metallurgy, covering: thermodynamics, phase diagrams, diffusion, crystal interfaces, and solidification. With this background, it then goes on to diffusional and diffusionless transformations. The book is thus more of a text on physical metallurgy, as opposed to being restricted to only transformations per, se. It is on the theoretical side, as opposed to a book that contains primarily data. This is an excellent book for upper level and graduate students of metallurgy and materials science, as well as physicists who need to know about solid-state transformations. It is a good book for practicing engineers who want a solid scientific background, but would not be a good choice if all they wanted were data. There is a more recent, third edition, of this book.
Rating: 5 Book was in excellent condition, timely shipping. Couldn't ask for more. As for the book itself, I personally dislike it (dense, lack of examples, hard to comprehend) Summary: Phase Transformations in Metals and AlloysRating: 5 I received my purchase in a timely manner and the book was in great condition. I am pleased with my purchase. Thank you Summary: Best quality/price ratioRating: 5 The Porter & Easterling book is the best help to organize a course on Phase Transformations or Physical Metallurgy. The low cost allows students to buy it. Edited first in 1981, only minor corrections were introduced in the second edition, but the contents are still up to date. Summary: Must have for MSE majorRating: 5 An excellent introduction to the thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of phase transformations. Please select one mirror to download
