Bulk Metallic Glasses

"""This book is notable for its lucid style as well as its comprehensive and systematic coverage of the field of bulk metallic glasses. The topics have been chosen carefully and systematically arranged. This makes the reader rapidly grasp the principles and applications of bulk metallic glasses. The field has attracted a number of books, but they are all edited volumes with multiple authors and lack the focus and coherence of this volume. The book by Suryanarayana and Inoue is definitely a classic."" —Srinivasa Ranganathan, Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, India ""The second edition of Bulk Metallic Glasses provides an indispensable resource on glassy alloys which are at the forefront of contemporary advanced materials. The authors, who are world leaders in the field, are uniquely qualified to provide the balance of breadth and depth of coverage that is valuable to both researchers active in the field as well as those entering the area."" —John H.

Perepezko, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA ""This book provides details on the most recent advances in glass forming, corrosion properties, and mechanical behavior of bulk metallic glasses and covers the latest applications... Those who want to learn about metallic glasses and the synthesis and properties of metallic glasses and how to tailor their properties will find this book to be a very useful resource. It would also be useful for those looking to use metallic glasses in an application. The book provides the necessary background for understanding how metallic glasses can provide a unique type of material behavior that could enable a new application or improve efficiency."" —John J.
