The most up-to-date coverage of welding metallurgy aspects andweldability issues associated with Ni-base alloysWelding Metallurgy and Weldability of Nickel-Base Alloysdescribes the fundamental metallurgical principles that control themicrostructure and properties of welded Ni-base alloys. It servesas a practical how-to guide that enables engineers to select theproper alloys, filler metals, heat treatments, and weldingconditions to ensure that failures are avoided during fabricationand service. Chapter coverage includes:* Alloying additions, phase diagrams, and phase stability* Solid-solution strengthened Ni-base alloys* Precipitation strengthened Ni-base alloys* Oxide dispersion strengthened alloys and nickel aluminides* Repair welding of Ni-base alloys* Dissimilar welding* Weldability testing* High-chromium alloys used in nuclear power applicationsWith its excellent balance between the fundamentals andpractical problem solving, the book serves as an ideal referencefor scientists, engineers, and technicians, as well as a textbookfor undergraduate and graduate courses in welding metallurgy.
