The classic book that presents a unified approach to crystallography and the defects found within crystals, revised and updated
This new edition of Crystallography and Crystal Defects explains the modern concepts of crystallography in a clear, succinct manner and shows how to apply these concepts in the analyses of point, line and planar defects in crystalline materials.
Fully revised and updated, this book now includes:
- Original source references to key crystallographic terms familiar to materials scientists
- Expanded discussion on the elasticity of cubic materials
- New content on texture that contains more detail on Euler angles, orientation distribution functions and an expanded discussion on examples of textures in engineering materials
- Additional content on dislocations in materials of symmetry lower than cubic
- An expanded discussion of twinning which includes the description and classification of growth twins<
