AlbakiReads Editorial

A revised foundation for understanding creep across material classes

This third edition frames creep plasticity as a materials-wide subject rather than one limited to metals and alloys. Alongside updated coverage of developments since the previous edition, it extends the discussion to ceramics, covalent solids, minerals, and polymers. That broader scope places deformation under sustained conditions in a comparative context across major classes of materials, while retaining its grounding in metals and alloys. With its emphasis on fundamentals and research-oriented updates, the volume is positioned as a technical reference for studying creep behavior and its underlying principles.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Researchers and scholars working on creep plasticity
  • Materials science and engineering students seeking a fundamentals-focused reference
  • Engineers interested in creep across metals, ceramics, minerals, and polymers

Book overview

Although the present edition of Fundamentals of Creep in Metals and Alloys remains broadly up to date for metals, there are a range of improvements and updates that are either desirable, or required, in order to ensure that the book continues to meet the needs of researchers and scholars in the general area of creep plasticity. Besides updating the areas currently covered in the second edition with recent advances, the third edition will broaden its scope beyond metals and alloys to include ceramics, covalent solids, minerals and polymers, thus addressing the fundamentals of creep in all basic classes of materials.
