Publisher's Synopsis
This volume, the third in a series spanning three decades, covers advances in the technology of beta alloys in the last ten years. Alloy development, physical metallurgy, heat treatment, fabrication/processing, and applications of these alloy systems, including beta-rich alpha-beta alloys as well as metastable beta alloys, are explored. Beta alloys are currently being examined for use in the aerospace, biomedical, and automotive fields, making this book a useful resource for members of these industries.
