Cast iron, one of the oldest alloys known to the human race is still finding new applications in spite of fierce competition from lighter alloys as well as from the most recently discovered new materials. From its earliest beginnings in around 500BC, cast iron underwent little change until the revolutionary development of spheroidal-graphite (ductile) iron in 1949. This discovery was the spark that ignited a series of unexpected transmogrifications of that ancient alloy.After three centuries cast iron is still, surprisingly, widening its scope of application; thanks to the dedicated research w

L'élaboration et la mise en œuvre des aciers et des fontes continuent de poser des défis à la métallurgie. Grâce à l'apport technologique de la microscopie électronique, elle peut être explorée dans ses moindres détails. L'interprétation d'une micrographie requiert une large culture métallurgique car souvent de nombreuses transformations ont laissé des traces à différentes échelles d'observation. Ce livre propose une présentation des notions fondamentales nécessaires à cet effet. Sa partie principale est consacrée aux notions fondamentales de métallurgie structurale de façon à fournir toutes les bases de raisonnement. La dernière partie est un guide pour comprendre et discuter l'optimisation des familles d'aciers et de fontes, définir leurs caractéristiques micrographiques en fonction de leurs propriétés d'emploi. Cette nouvelle édition révisée permettra aux spécialistes de l'expertise et du contrôle de s'appuyer sur une compréhension scientifique rigoureuse. Le livre assistera les ingénieurs de l'industrie pour le développement de nouveaux aciers, les enseignants en leur fournissant une large base d'exemples illustrant la métallurgie. Il ouvrira aux étudiants le monde des aciers et des fontes en leur faisant parcourir de façon pédagogique un vaste domaine de connaissances métallurgiques.

The Foseco Ferrous Foundryman's Handbook is a practical reference book for all those concerned with making castings in any of the commonly used alloys, by any of the usual moulding methods.International SI units are used throughout, but in almost all cases conversions to the more familiar Metric and Imperial units are given. Wherever possible, Casting Alloy Specifications include equivalent specifications for several countries as well as international specifications. Individual chapters cover the casting of light alloys, copper-based alloys, all types of cast-iron and steel. For each

As we enter the 21st century, mines are being planned to reach depths of more than 1,100 meters, waste rock embankments have surpassed 600 meters in height, tailings dams have reached heights of 200 meters, and heap leach facilities have topped 150 meters. The push toward higher, deeper, and steeper, along with the larger and more productive equipment in use today, continues to test our tools and capabilities. Slope Stability in Surface Mining documents the progressive rise in technical understanding and sophistication in the field. Only by continuously collecting and exchanging information ca
