This book based on the authors research within the field of crystallization principles over the last two decades, combined with relevant practice, which aims to provide a systematic and comprehensive review for academics in materials science and engineering. This book also acts as reference book for college students and engineering technicians in related majors. This book systematically introduces the metal crystallization principles related to the liquid-solid process, plastic deformation process, and film preparation process of metals and alloys.

Comprehensively reviews metal crystallization and solidification Introduces the knowledge of metal crystallization principles in detail from the perspective of both theory and practice Covers as much relevant knowledge of metal crystallization under various environments and conditions as possible
