Atomic Structure and Microstructure of Materials: Lattice Planes and Miller Indices
(University of Cambridge, 2013-08)
Miller Indices are a method of describing the orientation of a plane or set of planes within a lattice in relation to the unit cell. They were developed by William Hallowes Miller.
These indices are useful in understanding ...
Atomic Structure and Microstructure of Materials: Solidification of Alloys
(University of Cambridge, 2013-08)
Metals and alloys are almost always cast from a liquid at some point during the manufacturing process, as they are typically obtained from their ores in liquid form, or melted down from scrap. Also, alloying two or more ...
Fabrication and Processing of Materials: Casting
(University of Cambridge, 2013-08)
This TLP introduces a number of important processes through which metallic items can be fabricated from molten metal. As well as detailing the practical aspects of these manufacturing processes, attention is given to the ...
