Beschreibung
The book focuses on joining of advanced materials such as ceramics, intermetallics, laminated materials, composite materials and functional materials considering both in theory and in practice. It also covers details of joint design, weldability and quality assurance of the product. Both principles and engineering practice have been addressed to show advanced, scientific and novelty features. The latest research on advanced joining technology is one of the major features of the book, which is particularly suited for readers who are interested to learn practical solutions in joining of advanced materials. The book can benefit researchers, engineers and graduate students in the fields of joining, materials design and manufacturing, etc.
