More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Introduction to Dislocations was first published in 1965 in a series aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate students in metallurgy and materials science and related disciplines. At the time, the subject was maturing and it was expected that 'dislocation concepts' would remain a core discipline for a very long time. As expected, the book has been, and remains, an important undergraduate text all over the world.
A wider range of materials has emerged since 1965, most notably in the field of electronics and micro-engineering. The principles of dislocation theory still apply but some of the detail requires further treatment.
This fourth edition provides an essential basis for an understanding of many of the physical and mechanical properties of crystalline solids. This new edition has been extensively revised and updated to reflect developments in the understanding of the subject, whilst retaining the clarity and comprehensibility of the previous editions.

Excellent introduction for anybody writing their PhD thesis.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Introduction to Dislocations (Materials science & technology) (Paperback)
I used this book extensively in writing my Ph.D. thesis introductory chapters on deformation theory. Good clear diagrams helped in reminding me of the long forgotten dislocation theories of my undergraduate studies. It is perfect as an introductory source, small, handy and uncluttered by the large volume of literature on dislocation theory that could have been included. When looking for a particular topic I found that I ended up reading almost the entire book due to the ease in back tracking through the logical sequence of the chapters. Although meant as an introductory text, I have found that it is also an excellent reference source.

Very good elementary representations of dislocation theory.,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Introduction to Dislocations (Materials science & technology) (Paperback)
Much better and easier to understand than the many other classical dislocation theory books. It is also very comprehensive, although a little outdated due to its publication date.

Clear, concise, and well-written,
By Steven - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Introduction to Dislocations (Paperback)
This is an excellent introductory text on dislocation theory. The author does a good job of outlining fundamental materials principles before jumping into defects. The diagrams and images used are top-notch -- if only one could capture such good examples in practice! The latter half of the text covers some information on other types of defects (tilt boundaries, stacking faults) as well as numerous characterization techniques. Recommended!

An excellent introduction to dislocations,
By HAMAD FAHAD M ALHARBI - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Introduction to Dislocations (Paperback)
I bought this book to learn more about the subject of dislocations. I've never taken any course in dislocaitons, but i found this book (at least the first four chapters) relatively simple to read and understand. This book provides a good entry-level introduction to dislocations. It is recommended as a first read if you do not have previous background in dislocations.
