This book addresses all aspects of the science and technology of ultrafine grained materials produced by Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) techniques. It presents fundamental issues in SPD processing and SPD-processed materials, processing and microstructures, microstructural evolution, mechanical and physical properties, superplasticity, computational and analytical modeling, new SPD technologies and advances, and structural applications.
From the 2006 TMS Annual Meeting, held March 12-16, 2006, in San Antonio, Texas.
