Magnesium alloys have enormous potential for use in biomedical implants. Magnesium Alloys for Biomedical Applications delves into recent advances and prospects for implementation and provides scientific insights into current issues posed by Mg alloy materials. It provides an overview of research on their mechanical and tribological characteristics, corrosion tendencies, and biological characteristics, with a particular emphasis on biomedical implants.

Details the fundamentals of Mg alloys as well as necessary surface modifications of Mg alloys for biomedical use.
Discusses emerging Mg alloys and their composites.
Covers mechanical, tribological, and chemical properties, as well as fatigue and corrosion.
Highlights emerging manufacturing methods and advancements in new alloy design, composite manufacturing, unique structure design, surface modification, and recyclability.
Helps readers identify appropriate Mg-based materials for their applications and select optimal improvement methods.
Summarizes current challenges and suggests a roadmap for future research.

Aimed at researchers in materials and biomedical engineering, this book explores the many breakthroughs achieved with these materials and where the field should concentrate to ensure the development of safe and reliable Mg alloy-based implants.

About the Author

Deepak Kumar is a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, USA. His work involves the development of thin conductive film, integration of these methods with devices using clean room technology, characterizing device behavior through a novel, in-house-built controlled characterization platform, and analyzing the results to unravel the mechanisms governing performance limits and failure modes.

Dr. Nooruddin Ansari is a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Texas A & M University, Qatar. He is currently working on the development of steels, Ti, Al, and Mg alloys through additive manufacturing, with a focus on investigating their mechanical and corrosion behavior across different environments.

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
