Metallic Glasses and Their Composites: 2nd updated and extended edition: 85 (Materials Research Foundations)

Metallic glasses and their crystal/glass composites find ever more applications in such fields as mini transformers microelectromechanical devices pressure sensors precision surgical instruments biological implants and sportive goods (springs diaphragms membranes knife blades electromagnetic wave shields optical mirrors power inductors Coriolis flow meters etc.). The book reviews recent research and suggests future developments e.g. in the area of dual-phase composite/hybrid materials.Keywords: Metallic Glasses Crystal/Glass Composites Dual-phase Composite/Hybrid Materials Supercooled Liquid Devitrification Magnetic Materials Microelectromechanical Devices Pressure Sensors Orthopedic Screws Precision Instruments Biological Implants Electromagnetic Wave Shields Optical Mirrors Power Inductors Coriolis Flow Meters.
