Short description
Kinetic Processes in Materials integrates a broad range of material on kinetic processes: diffusion, chemical reactions, and phase transformations. This first year graduate-level text features scores of problems, many of which are class tested and worked out. Although there are numerous texts on diffusion currently available, none offers the scope and depth of this text.
