Theory of Metallurgical Manufacturing Process

This book provides a significant innovative and strategic expansion of the discipline's branch of metallurgical process engineering. It is the first to systematically propose a three-tier theoretical framework of metallurgy, comprising micro-scale fundamental metallurgy, specialized process metallurgy, and macro-scale dynamic metallurgy. This innovative theoretical structure breaks through the limitations of traditional metallurgical research, extending the scope of study from the atomic/molecular-level micro perspective and the procedure/device-level meso perspective to the macro perspective of overall manufacturing process optimization, achieving a crucial leap in the research domain of metallurgical engineering. The contemporary innovation and development of metallurgical science and engineering must be grounded in the organic integration and systematic combination of these three tiers of metallurgy, ultimately constructing a modern metallurgical knowledge system characterized by holism, dynamism, and engineering practicality through multi-scale, multi-dimensional knowledge nesting. This book is intended for engineers, researchers, and managers in the fields of metallurgical engineering, industrial design, and process engineering.
