This is a well-established textbook that primarily covers the metallurgical changes that take place during the welding process, the properties of welded joints, defects associated with welding, and the behavior of welded joints in service.
The text has been thoroughly revised and updated for this sixth edition. A new chapter on adhesive bonding has been written which explores bonding forces, polymer chemistry, types of adhesive, production technology, quality control, and applications. New sections have been added on the brittle and ductile behavior of solids, ductile fracture and the velocity of crack propagation; friction stir welding; weld defects and the evaluation of nondestructive tests; the metallurgy of superaustenitic stainless steel; welding metallurgy of aluminum-lithium alloys; and major structural failures and the role of welding in such failures.
Key Features:
- Covers new welding processes (such as friction stir welding)
- Text has been completely revised and updated from previous edition
- New section on major structural failures includes the role of welding in real-life examples

John Lancaster has had extensive industrial and academic experience in welding metallurgy. He worked at the APV Company on the welding of non-ferrous metals and stainless steel, and later with M.W. Kellog where he was concerned with the fabrication of refinery and petrochemical plant in carbon and low alloy steel. He was Visiting Professor at Ashton University from 1971 to 1976, and in 1980 was appointed Guest Professor at the University of Tientsin, China.
