Introduction; five-power-law creep; diffusional creep; harper dorn creep; three-power-law viscous glide creep; superplasticity; recrystallization; creep behavior of particle strengthened alloys; creep fracture
� Numerous line drawings with consistent format and units allow
easy comparison of the behavior of a very wide range of
materials
� Transmission electron micrographs provide a direct insight in the
basic microstructure of metals deforming at high temperatures
� Extensive literature review of over 1000 references provide an
excellent reference document, and a very balanced discussion
Dr. Kassner is a professor in the department of Aerospace and
Mechanical Engineering at the University of Southern California in
Los Angeles. He holds M.S.and Ph.D. degrees in Materials Science
and Engineering from Stanford University, has published two books
and more than 200 articles and book chapters in the areas of metal
plasticity theory, creep, fracture, phase diagrams, fatigue, and
semi-solid forming, and currently serves on the editorial board of
Elsevier’s International Journal of Plasticity. María Teresa Pérez
Prado is Senior Scientist and Head of the Sustainable Metallurgy
group at IMDEA Materials Institute since 2008. She was Head of
Department between 2014 and 2017 and Deputy Director of the
institute between 2017 and 2021. Her research focuses on the
development of advanced metals for a greener world. She is
passionate about contributing to the training of future leaders and
creating value for society from science-based innovations. She was
included in the Stanford list of world´s top 2% scientists
(Ioannidis et al. PLoS Biol, 2020).
She has coauthored 129 papers, 1 book, and 3 patents, has advised 8
PhD theses and has led 22 research projects funded by EU,
industrial and Spanish sources.
