Metals Handbook, Volume 6: Welding, Brazing, and Soldering

Provides an in-depth review of a number of processes recently introduced or that have come into acceptance such as radial, rotary (orbital), precision, powder, and isothermal/hot-die forging. Plus superplastic sheet forming, and abrasive waterjet and laser cutting. New materials in this book (containing 1,200 illustrations and 250 tables) pertains to the development of thermomechanical processing, particularly with regard to aerospace alloys, and the development of concepts and tests to determine metal workability/formability relationships.
