Publisher's Synopsis
This volume contains the proceedings of the Third International Symposium on the Physical Metallurgy of Cast Iron, discusses solidification of cast iron alloys, solid state transformation in cast iron alloys, and the relationship between microstructure and mechanical properties. Also examined are newly developed alloys, and new trends in cast iron research. Based on basic knowledge of the physical metallurgy of cast iron, this volume is a valuable reference source for physical metallurgists, foundry and mechanical engineers and materials scientists.
