Mechanical spectroscopy is a non-desctructive technique that is very well suited for studying the dynamics of singularities such as structural defects in solids. It has been successfully applied in solid state physics and materials science for more than 50 years, and in this textbook aims at summarizing the state-of-the-art in this field by presenting results obtained by Western European laboratories. spectroscopy (Ch. 1) is basedon a complete description of elastic, viscoelastic, and viscoplastic behaviour of solids. The anelastic response is analyzed from three different veiwpoints: phenomenology, rheology and thermodynamics. defect dimensionality: point defects (Ch. 2) one-dimensional defects, such as dislocations (Ch. 3), two-dimensional defects, such as grain boundaries (Ch. 4) or the surface of domains (Ch 6). Mechanical losses associated with phase transitions are presented in chapter 5, and relaxation in non-crystalline materials in chapter 7. as thin-layers, localized surface properties, stress relazation in composites, fatigue and the development of high-damping materials, are described, with examples, in chapter 8. Chapter 9 covers classical, and new, techniques for measuring internal friction or ultrasonic attenuation in solids, from macro- down to nanoscale.

Intermetallics is concerned with all aspects of ordered chemical compounds between two or more metals and notably with their applications. This book covers new and important research on the crystal chemistry and bonding theory of intermetallics; determination and analysis of phase diagrams; the nature of superlattices, antiphase domains and order-disorder transitions; the geometry and dynamics of dislocations and related defects in intermetallics; theory and experiments relating to flow stress, work-hardening, fatigue and creep; response of deformed intermetallics to annealing; magnetic and electrical properties of intermetallics; structure and properties of grain and interphase boundaries; the effect of deviations from stoichiometry on physical and mechanical properties; crystallisation of intermetallics from the melt or amorphous precursors.

Different anelastic phenomena are discussed in this book with respect to iron-based binary and ternary alloys and intermetallic compounds of Fe3Me type, where Me are α-stabilizing elements Al, Ga, or Ge. An introduction into anelastic behavior of metallic materials is given, and methods of mechanical spectroscopy and neutron diffraction are introduced for the better understanding of structure-related relaxation and hysteretic phenomena. To characterize structure and phase transitions - both first and second order - in the studied alloys XRD, TEM, SEM, MFM, VSM, PAS, DSC techniques were used. Considerable emphasis is placed on in situ neutron diffraction tests that were performed with the same heating and cooling rates as the internal friction measurements. Different types of mechanical spectroscopy techniques were used to study mainly, but not exclusively, Fe-Al, Fe-Ga and Fe-Ge based alloys: from subresonance “low” frequency forced bending and torsion vibrations (0.00001 to 200 Hz) to “high” frequency resonance (above ~200 Hz) free decay bending vibrations. We discuss (1) thermally activated effects like Snoek-type relaxation, caused by interstitial atom jumps in alloyed ferrite, (2) Zener relaxation, caused by reorientation of pairs of substitute atoms in iron, (3) different transient effects due to phase transitions of the first and second order, and (4) amplitude dependent magneto-mechanical damping; especially with respect to structure, ordering of substitutional solid solution and phase transitions. Special attention is paid to magnetostriction of the alloys - the result of magneto-mechanical elastic coupling.

Our understanding of the rheological and seismic properties of the Earth’s interior relies on interpreting geophysical observations using mineral physics data. The complexity of natural materials complicates these interpretations, but here the key features of such materials in controlling the attenuation of seismic waves are determined by a set of careful experiments. This thesis clearly explains how dynamic mechanical spectroscopy has been used to determine the visco-elastic properties of igneous and sedimentary rocks containing geological fluids. These experiments highlight, for the first time, the importance of mineral and rock microstructures as controls on geophysical properties of solids, particularly near the melting point. The results have impacts in areas ranging from volcanic processes, through the structure of the deep Earth, to fluid-saturated porous media.
