About this title

Synopsis

""Metallography: An Introduction To The Study Of The Structure Of Metals, Chiefly By The Aid Of The Microscope"" is a comprehensive guide to the study of metals and their structures. Written by Arthur Horseman Hiorns and first published in 1902, this book provides an in-depth exploration of the science of metallography, which is the study of the microscopic structure of metals. The book begins with an overview of the history of metallography and the tools and techniques used to study metals. It then delves into the different types of metals and alloys, including iron, steel, copper, and brass. The author describes the properties of these metals and how their microscopic structure affects their physical and mechanical properties.The main focus of the book is on the use of the microscope to study the structure of metals. The author explains the different types of microscopes and how to prepare metal samples for examination. He also provides detailed descriptions of the different structures that can be observed in metals, such as grains, phases, and inclusions.Throughout the book, the author provides numerous illustrations and photographs to aid in understanding the concepts presented. He also includes practical examples and case studies to demonstrate how metallography can be used to solve real-world problems.Overall, ""Metallography: An Introduction To The Study Of The Structure Of Metals, Chiefly By The Aid Of The Microscope"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the science of metals, including metallurgists, materials scientists, and engineers. Its clear and concise explanations make it accessible to both students and professionals alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
