CLASSIFICATION OF PAPERS PUBLISHED IN CANADIAN METALLURGICAL QUARTERLY (CMQ) : TOPIC DISTRIBUTIONS IN THE FIRST 50 YEARS (1962 Vol.1 to 2011 Vol. 50)

摘要

To develop a clearer insight into Metallurgical Society CIM activities during the past half century, an analysis was undertaken of subjects published in the CMQ. The subjects were classified into some 40 different topics and are presented in tables at 5 year intervals; graphical presentations compare the relative significance changes over the years. Hot workability of Al alloys is charted in comparison to Mg alloys, copper and steels. The significant groups started from properties with divisions for microstractural, physical, thermo dynamic and mechanical; the last has more details for hot workability (first author's specialty), such as Al alloys, C/HSLA and tool steels, stainless steels, Cu and Ni alloys, and hexagonal metals. Secondary processing includes hot working, cold working/annealing, casting & welding, and heat treatment. Extractive metallurgy includes steel making, smelting/non-ferrous, hydro-metallurgy and mineral dressing/flotation. There are headings also for environmental, energy and history as well as ceramics, polymers and semi-conductors. For hot working, there is some discussion of Met. Soc. proceedings, especially Light Metals.
