Thermodynamics and kinetics of solid-state transformations

H. K. D. H. Bhadeshia

This collection of educational materials focuses on the thermodynamics and kinetics of solid-state transformations within the field of materials science. Led by researcher Harshad Bhadeshia and affiliated with institutions like the University of Cambridge, the resources cover fundamental concepts such as solution models, phase diagram computation, and diffusion-controlled growth.

Practical applications are highlighted through case studies on topics like mechanical alloying and the development of creep-resistant steels. Students and professionals can access these insights through various formats, including lecture slides, video summaries, and free digital books.

Ultimately, the curriculum provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how atomic movements and energy changes dictate the behaviour of engineering materials.
