Copies

Description 1 online resource (xiii, 516 pages) : illustrations (some color)
Contents Overview of High-Entropy Alloys -- Phase Formation Rules -- Physical Metallurgy -- Advanced Characterization Techniques -- Fabrication Routes -- Mechanical Properties of High-Entropy Alloys -- Functional Properties -- Prediction of Structure and Phase Transformations -- Applications of Coherent Potential Approximation to HEAs -- Applications of Special Quasi-random Structures to High-Entropy Alloys -- Design of High-Entropy Alloys -- CALPHAD Modelling of High-Entropy Alloys -- High-Entropy Metallic Glasses -- High-Entropy Coatings -- Potential Applications and Prospects
Summary This book provides a systematic and comprehensive description of high-entropy alloys (HEAs). The authors summarize key properties of HEAs from the perspective of both fundamental understanding and applications, which are supported by in-depth analyses. The book also contains computational modeling in tackling HEAs, which help elucidate the formation mechanisms and properties of HEAs from various length and time scales
