About this book

Beryllium: Its Metallurgy and Properties is a comprehensive exploration of the metal's characteristics, processing, and applications, based on lectures delivered at the University of California, Los Angeles, in March 1963. The book focuses on beryllium as a construction material, recent advancements in its technology, and efforts to improve its ductility through advanced processing techniques. It highlights the growing significance of beryllium oxide as an engineering material and addresses health hazards associated with handling beryllium, offering guidance on mitigation strategies. Appendices include information on electron probe microanalysis and metallography, providing further technical insights. The chapters are authored by experts from government agencies, academic institutions, and industry, all actively engaged in beryllium research, development, fabrication, and application. The book emphasizes the need for continued research and development to advance the material's usability and safety, reflecting its critical role in modern engineering. By combining technical detail with practical applications, the text serves as a vital resource for professionals and researchers in metallurgy and materials science. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1965.
