Book Description: Materials Science in Machine Building Комаров О. С. , Керженцева Л. Ф. , Макаева Г. Г. 2009 Pages: 304 с. ил. The book "Materials Science in Machine Building" by [Insert Author's Name] provides an in-depth overview of the current state of materials science in the field of machine building, covering topics such as the atomic and crystalline structure of metals, processes of structure formation, defects of crystalline structure, phase transformations, and diagrams of double alloys. The author also explores modes of thermal and strengthening treatments for all classes of steels, their properties, and methods of improvement, as well as alloys based on nonferrous metals and promising materials like nonmetallic powders and composites. This comprehensive guide is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the evolution of technology and its impact on modern society. Chapter 1: Introduction to Materials Science In this opening chapter, the author sets the stage for the rest of the book by discussing the importance of materials science in machine building and the need for a personal paradigm for perceiving the technological process of developing modern knowledge. The author emphasizes the significance of studying and understanding the evolution of technology as the basis for human survival and unity in a warring world. Chapter 2: Atomic and Crystalline Structure of Metals This chapter delves into the fundamental principles of materials science, explaining the atomic and crystalline structure of metals and how they affect the properties of these materials. The author covers topics such as the periodic table, crystal structures, and defects in crystalline structure, providing readers with a solid foundation for understanding the properties of metals. Chapter 3: Processes of Structure Formation Here, the author explores the various processes involved in forming the structure of metals, including casting, forging, and machining. The chapter also covers the different types of defects that can occur during these processes and their impact on the final product.
