Opis

This volume compiles information from physics, metallurgy, and mechanical and electrical engineering to epitomize the fundamental characteristics of flat rolling steel. It proceeds from in-depth analyses of metal properties and behaviours to technologies in application. It also presents qualitative and quantitative advances in cost-effective steel production.
