The Best Metallurgy Books for Beginners

Material Science and Metallurgy processes is a core subject having close relations with all branches of engineering .No branch of engineering can be studied properly if one does not have depth knowledge of material science and metallurgy.considering the fundamental importance of material science and processes. I have ventured to introduce this subject in simple language which can be easily digested by the beginners. Lambert publishers deserves my thanks for making this publication possible in a record time.Needless to emphasise this new book has been designed a self learning capsule.

With this aim in view,the material has been organised in a logical order and line diagrams have been incorporated to enable to students to thoroughly master the subject.The contents of the book has relevance with the subject prescribed by JNTU university, Osmania university, various universities of India and AMIE institution of engineers.

Metallurgy Fundamentals provides instruction and information on the basic properties, characteristics, and production of the major metal families. The text emphasizes the theoretical and practical aspects of metallurgy and explores the behavior of metals subjected to metallurgical processes. Clear, concise language and numerous full-color photos, illustrations, tables and diagrams make this an easy-to-understand text for students in introductory metallurgy courses. The section on nonferrous metallurgy discusses the processes used to create nonferrous metals, as well as the modern uses of nonferrous alloys.

This new edition provides up-to-date metallurgy coverage of current topics, including additive manufacturing, powder metallurgy, noble and rare earth metal applications, sustainable practices, safety, and practical applications. Special features include Safety Notes, Practical Metallurgy, Did You Know?, and Sustainable Metallurgy.
