Light Weight Materials
Kumar, Kaushik (Birla Institute of Technology, India) / Babu, Bathini Sridhar (CMR Institute of Technology, India) / Davim, J. Paulo (University of Aveiro, Portugal) In the automotive and aerospace industries, the need for strong yet light materials has given rise to extensive research into aluminum and magnesium alloys and formable titanium alloys. All of these are categorized as light weight materials. The distinguishing feature of light weight materials is that they are low density, but they have a wide range of properties and, as a result, a wide range of applications. This book provides researchers an...
