Description:

This new edition updates readers with the latest concepts of crystallography in a clear, succinct manner, and describes their application in line and planar defects in crystalline materials, quasicrystals, and crystal interfaces. The coverage begins with a chapter on lattice geometry, followed by crystal systems and crystal structures. Tensors, stresses, strain, and elasticity and plasticity in crystals are then discussed, along with dislocations in crystals. Point defects, deformation twinning, and martensitic transformations are covered in chapters nine to eleven, before the book concludes by considering interfaces in crystals.
