Steels: Structure, Properties and Design is an essential text and reference, providing indispensable foundational content for researchers, metallurgists, and engineers in industry and academia. The book provides inspiring content for undergraduates, yet has a depth that makes it useful to researchers. Steels represent the most used metallic materials, possessing a wide range of structures and properties. By examining the properties of steels in conjunction with structure, the book provides a valuable description of the development and behavior of these materials- the very foundation of their widespread use. The new edition has been thoroughly revised and updated with 2 new chapters, expanded content throughout,and yet it retains its clear writing style, extensive bibliographies, and real-life examples. One of the new chapters deals with the additive manufacture of steels with a focus on structure and properties. The other has visionary applications of steel that lead to a dramatic reduction of the carbon dioxide burden, within a short period of time, and without compromising the quality of life that depends on steels.

This applications-oriented book describes the construction of an injection mold from the ground up. Included are explanations of the individual types of molds, components, and technical terms; design procedures; techniques, tips, and tricks in the construction of an injection mold; and pros and cons of various solutions.Based on a plastic part ("bowl with lid") specially developed for this book, easily understandable text and many illustrative pictures and drawings provide the necessary knowledge for practical implementation. Step by step, the plastic part is modified and enhanced. The technologies and designs that are additionally needed for an injection mold are described by engineering drawings. Maintenance and repair, and essential manufacturing techniques are also discussed.With full-color illustrations, this third edition builds on the success of the previous ones, with significantly expanded coverage of molding simulation, including many new figures, and updates and small corrections throughout the book.

2019 begann Stefan Marx mit seiner Serie von Monotypien. In Zusammenarbeit mit dem Berliner Siebdrucker Björn Wiede entwickelte er seine eigene Arbeitsweise: In drei Arbeitsgängen entstehen drei Einzelbilder - ein positives, ein negatives und ein »Geisterbild«, der ghost. An diesem neuen Ansatz faszinierten ihn zunächst der fette Farbauftrag und die Intensität der Pigmente. Beim Farbauftrag wird die Bildoberfläche selbst nicht berührt - die Bildfindungen ergeben sich über die Bearbeitung des Drucksiebs. Ein großer Teil dieser Monotypien sind Schriftbilder, doch es gibt ebenso figürliche Bildmotive, darunter Tierzeichnungen und andere Zeichen aus dem Motivinventar von Stefan Marx.Dieses Buch schließt an den Band Schriftbilder an: Auch Monotypien hat Stefan Marx als Künstlerbuch entwickelt und arbeitet mit einer faszinierenden Verschränkung zwischen den Abbildungen der Werke und den Entwurfskizzen aus seinen Notizbüchern.STEFAN MARX (*1979 Schwalmstadt, Hessen) ist Zeichner, Skateboarder und Kulturphilosoph. Seine unverwechselbare Handschrift findet sich auf Papier, Leinwand, Porzellan und Textilien. Er entwirft für verschiedene Labels, veröffentlicht im Eigenverlag Zines, zeigt seine Arbeiten bei zahlreichen internationalen Ausstellungen, Art Book Fairs und in Galerien. Marx lebt und arbeitet in Berlin.
