It offers detailed descriptions of the methods available to predict the occurrence of diffusion in alloys subjected to various processes. Major topic areas covered include diffusion equations, atomic theory of diffusion, diffusion in dilute alloys, diffusion in a concentration gradient, diffusion in non-metals, high diffusivity paths, and thermo- and electro-transport. This is an excellent text…
"This book provides an introduction to the concepts used in understanding the metallurgy who had had a prior course dealing with the atomic structure of solids, simple crystals, defects, and the existence of phase diagrams"
