Sinha and Shoma Sinha deliver a rigorous and wide-ranging discussion of the behavior of different materials at high temperatures. The book discusses a variety of physical phenomena, from plate tectonics and polar sea ice to ice-age and intraglacial depression and the postglacial rebound of Earth’s crust, stress relaxation at high temperatures, and microstructure and crack-enhanced Elasto Delayed Elastic Viscous (EDEV) models. At a very high level, \u003ci\u003eEngineering Physics of High-Temperature Materials (EPHTM)\u003c\/i\u003e takes a multidisciplinary view of the behavior of materials at temperatures close to their melting point. The volume particularly focuses on a powerful model called the Elasto-Delayed-Elastic-Viscous (EDEV) model that can be used to study a variety of inorganic materials ranging from snow and ice, metals, including complex gas-turbine engine materials, as well as natural rocks and earth formations (tectonic processes). It demonstrates how knowledge gained in one field of study can have a strong impact on other fields.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEngineering Physics of High-Temperature Materials\u003c\/i\u003e will be of interest to a broad range of specialists, including earth scientists, volcanologists, cryospheric and interdisciplinary climate scientists, and solid-earth geophysicists. The book demonstrates that apparently dissimilar polycrystalline materials, including metals, alloys, ice, rocks, ceramics, and glassy materials, all behave in a surprisingly similar way at high temperatures. This similarity makes the information contained in the book valuable to all manner of physical scientists.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReaders will also benefit from the inclusion of:  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thorough introduction to the importance of a unified model of high temperature material behavior, including high temperature deformation and the strength of materials\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAn exploration of the nature of crystalline substances for engineering applications, including basic materials classification, solid state materials, and general physical principles\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscussions of forensic physical materialogy and test techniques and test systems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExaminations of creep fundamentals, including rheology and rheological terminology, and phenomenological creep failure models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003ePerfect for materials scientists, metallurgists, and glaciologists, \u003ci\u003eEngineering Physics of High-Temperature Materials: Metals, Ice, Rocks, and Ceramics\u003c\/i\u003e will also earn a place in the libraries of specialists in the nuclear, chemical, and aerospace industries with an interest in the physics and engineering of high-temperature materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNirmal K.
