Professor Yang Ping and I are in charge of the subject " deformation and recrystallization", thus we are responsible for writing the English textbook for it. We are also working on the research field " Fundamentals of materials science and anisotropic properties of materials" controlled mainly by deformation / recrystallization or phase transformation for decades. Therefore, we are qualified for writing the textbook entitled"Deformation and Recrystallization in Solid Materials" .
The lecture notes have been finished around 2016 mainly by Professor Yang Ping. I modified and enhanced them in the following years during teaching. Now, the textbook includes six chapters and is scheduled for 16 teaching hours. Exercises and examples for each chapter are prepared. We also added recent advance in deformation and recrystallization processes obtained by Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) method. The last two chapters, analytical techniques and softwares, are designed for the off-class extending reading.
