"Recent Trends in Processing and Degradation of Aluminium Alloys" ed. by Zaki Ahmad

This book covers the essential need for the industrial and academic communities for update information. It would also be useful for entrepreneurs technocrats and all those interested in the production and the application of aluminum alloys and strategic structures. It would also help the instructors at senior and graduate level to support their text.
