The only handbook of mathematical relations with a focus on
particulate materials processing

The National Science Foundation estimates that over 35% of
materials-related funding is now directed toward modeling. In part,
this reflects the increased knowledge and the high cost of
experimental work. However, currently there is no organized
reference book to help the particulate materials community with
sorting out various relations. This book fills that important need,
providing readers with a quick-reference handbook for easy
consultation.

This one-of-a-kind handbook gives readers the relevant
mathematical relations needed to model behavior, generate computer
simulations, analyze experiment data, and quantify physical and
chemical phenomena commonly found in particulate materials
processing. It goes beyond the traditional barriers of only one
material class by covering the major areas in ceramics, cemented
carbides, powder metallurgy, and particulate materials. In many
cases, the governing equations are the same but the terms are
material-specific. To rise above these differences, the authors
have assembled the basic mathematics around the following topical
structure:

* Powder technology relations, such as those encountered in
atomization, milling, powder production, powder characterization,
mixing, particle packing, and powder testing

* Powder processing, such as uniaxial compaction, injection
molding, slurry and paste shaping techniques, polymer pyrolysis,
sintering, hot isostatic pressing, and forging, with accompanying
relations associated with microstructure development and
microstructure coarsening

* Finishing operations, such as surface treatments, heat
treatments, microstructure analysis, material testing, data
analysis, and structure-property relations

Handbook of Mathematical Relations in Particulate Materials
Processing is suited for quick reference with stand-alone
definitions, making it the perfect complement to existing resources
used by academic researchers, corporate product and process
developers, and various scientists, engineers, and technicians
working in materials processing.

Rezensionen

"Suited for quick reference with stand alone definitions. It is the
perfect complement to existing

textbooks since it will simply cut to the key relations. "
