Table of Contents
This practical guide provides an
introduction for understanding the compositional complexity of superalloys superalloy and the wide
range
of alloys developed for specific applications. The
basics of alloying, strengthening mechanisms, and structure of superalloys are explained
in optimizing particular mechanical properties,
oxidation/corrosion resistance, and manufacturing characteristics such as castability,
forgeability, and weldability.
