Asm International – författare

Engineering Plastics is designed and written for working engineers. The volume provides comprehensive coverage of the properties, selection, processing, and analysis of plastics for engineering applications. Sections include: General Design Considerations; Guide to Engineering Plastics Families (thermoplastics and thermsets); Manufacturing Process Selection; Properties Considerations; Testing and Characterization; Materials Selection; Structural Analysis and Design; Failure Analysis.

ASM Engineered Materials Handbook Series 97 articles represent the efforts of more than 300 contributing authors and reviewers. The result is the most thorough review of the selection, design, properties, and uses of structural adhesives and sealants. The broad range of technical information presented in this volume is divided into 10 major sections including: an overview of adhesives and sealants technology, a description of the major market and application areas, classification and comparison of various adhesives and sealants, surface preparation/considerations for adherents (metals, plastics, composites, and ceramics and glasses). Methods used to test and analyze bonded structures; determination of mechanical properties (fatigue, fracture, etc.); physical characteristics (thermal and electrical); and microstructural analysis. Designing with adhesives and sealants; the performance of adhesively bonded components in various service environments; manufacturing practices associated with adhesives and sealants (including curing and cure controls), and equipment used for mixing and dispensing, quality control, and repair recommendations are covered.

ASM Engineered Materials Handbook Series Volume 4 provides exhaustive, yet practical information on processing, properties, testing and characterization, design, and applications of various types of ceramics and glasses. The coverage ranges from bricks to superconductors, windows to data transmission lines.

The most comprehensive single volume on the most important non-metallic materials in use today. Contains many never before published articles. Perfect companion piece to highly regarded ASM Metals Handbook Desk Edition. This indispensable handbook contains a wealth of information on the basic non-metallic structural engineering materials - plastics, composites, ceramics and glasses. You'll get data on properties, selection, applications and testing. All of it has been peer-reviewed and synthesized to focus on the most potential points. If you need to consider alternatives to the materials you usually specify, this resource will prove truly invaluable. It will show where you can save on cost or weight, or gain other performance advantages. With key information about testing and processing, you can readily zero in on your choice of options. Based on ASM's renowned four-volume Engineered Materials Handbook series, this book also contains substantial new information. Like the 'Guide to Materials Selection' that gives you comparative information about the characteristics and advantages/disadvantages of these materials.There are also new sections on recycling plastics, metallizing of plastics, recycling and environmental impact of ceramics, and ceramic-matrix composites. Containing 'quick Stufy' information about the most widely used non-metallic materials, this book gives you hundreds of well-organized tables with critical details on properties and processing. A 'General Engineering Tables and Data' section provides convenient summary of facts and figures for quick reference. And you'll find numerous graphs, charts, illustrations, and photographs, plus an extensive glossary of terms. Contents include: General Data Information, Introduction to Polymeric Materials, Properties and Characteristics of Engineering Plastics and Elastomers, Processing and Fabrication of Engineering Plastics and Elastomers, Testing of Polymeric Materials, Polymer-Matrix Composites, Adhesives and Sealants, Introduction to Ceramics and Glasses, Applications Processing/Characterization of Ceramics, Advanced Ceramics, Ceramic-Matrix Composites, Glasses, Carbon-Carbon Composites, Index.

This volume covers standard designations from worldwide standards for cast irons and steels, wrought carbon and alloy steels, stainless steels, high strength steels, and tool steels. Entries are provided for more than 30,000 alloy designations. Well over 5000 entries have been updated, and more than 3000 are new additions. In particular, the Fifth Edition features expanded coverage for specifications and designations from Japan, China, India, and South Korea.Listings include specification or standard number and title, steel designation or grade, chemical composition, product form and condition, tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and hardness values. The volume includes a comprehensive alloy index and index of standards (by designation).The updated Fifth Edition incorporates the many changes in the specifications and designations of irons and steels that have occurred in recent years. It also covers more countries, more alloys, and more standards than previous editions, while keeping obsolete designations for those persons trying to duplicate equipment from old documents.

Examines more than 100 cases of failure and the process by which they were analyzed, diagnosed, and resolved.Provides expert analysis and insight on a variety of materials, failure modes, root causes, and analytical techniques.Includes sections dedicated to specific components, industries, and other factors, as follows:Transportation and Motive Power Systems – Air and Spacecraft, Automobiles and Trucks, Construction and Farming Equipment, Rail and Rolling Stock, WatercraftBuildings and Bridges – Bridges and Suspensions, Buildings and Building Systems, Building and Construction Materials, Towers and Architectural StructuresPetrochemical/Chemical Processing – Pipe and Piping, Pressure Vessels and Boilers, Pulp and Paper Processing, Storage Tanks, TurbomachineryMining and Manufacturing – Material Handling and Conveying, Thermal Processing Equipment, Oil and Gas, Offshore and MarineMechanical Components – Bearing Failures, Fastener Failures, Gear Failures, Shaft FailuresFailure Modes – Corrosion, Distortion/Deformation, Fracture, WearProcessing Related Failures – Casting Defects, Metalworking Defects, Heat Treating Defects, Welding Defects

The theme for the 2021 conference was System-in-Package (SiP) technology. Papers include discussions on board and system level failure analysis; detecting counterfeit microelectronics; emerging failure analysis techniques and concepts; future challenges of failure analysis; scanning probe analysis; hardware attacks, security, and reverse engineering; microscopy and material characterization; nanoprobing and electrical characterization; and more.In the 21st century, the electronic market will be driven by consumers with demands of immediate entertainment, fast access to information, and communications anywhere in a personalized fashion and at affordable prices. The new challenge is not how many transistors can be built on a single chip, as in System-on-Chip (SoC), but rather how to integrate diverse circuits together predictably, harmoniously, and cost effectively. Instead of getting twice the transistors for the same cost as Moore's Law predicted in the past 50 years, the goal of SiP is to obtain the same number of transistors for half the cost within less than half the time to market.
