Physical Methods of Chemistry, Determination of Elastic and Mechanical Properties

by Bryant W. Rossiter (Editor), Roger C. Baetzold (Editor)

Overview

Each volume of this series heralds profound changes in both the perception and practice of chemistry. This edition presents the state of the art of all important methods of instrumental chemical analysis, measurement and control. Contributions offer introductions together with sufficient detail to give a clear understanding of basic theory and apparatus involved and an appreciation of the value, potential and limitations of the respective techniques. The emphasis of the subjects treated is on method rather than results, thus aiding the investigator in applying the techniques successfully in the laboratory.

Editorial Reviews

For academic and industrial scientists and engineers in, or entering, such fields as advanced materials research or new, highly sophisticated, automated manufacturing and processing methods, explains methods for determining the elastic and mechanical properties of materials such as metals, alloys, oxides, polymers, and composites. Among the six individually authored chapters are discussions of dynamic moduli and loss factors; yielding, crazing, and fracture; friction and wear; mechanical testing of adhesives, and bulk modulus and compressive properties. The first edition, in 1970, was edited by Weissberger and Rossiter. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
