| Description: | Interest in the phenomenon of superplasticity has been increasing steadily over the past thirty-four years, both from the viewpoint of fundamental scientific understanding as well as of industrial application. The scope of superplasticity has also broadened materials-wise, and now includes, in addition to metals: intermetallics, ceramics, bulk metallic glasses, nanostructured materials and composites. The objective of this special collection was to provide an international forum through which to gather up-to-date knowledge and information on a wide range of topics and to encourage further developments in superplasticity. Over 104 peer-reviewed papers have been selected for publication. The volume is divided into the following chapters: Plenary Session, Advanced Industrial Applications, Processing Methods, Material Processing for Superplasticity, Superplasticity in Light Metals, Product Design and Numerical Simulation, Mechanisms of Grain Boundary Sliding and Failure, Superplasticity in Metals, Superplasticity in Intermetallics, Superplasticity in Ceramics, Superplasticity in Bulk Metallic Glasses, High Strain Rate and Low Temperature Superplasticity, Microstructural Control and Microstructural Evolution during Superplastic Deformation. Altogether, the contents constitute a timely and invaluable guide to the state-of-the-art of superplasticity. |
