An epic new history of Ancient China told through the prism of a dozen extraordinary tombsThe three millennia up to the establishment of the first imperial Qin dynasty in 221 BC cemented many of the distinctive elements of Chinese civilisation still in place today: an extraordinarily challenging geography and environment, formidable infrastructure, a society based on the strict hierarchy of the family, a shared written script of characters, a cuisine founded on rice and millet, a material culture of ceramics, bronze, silk and jade, and a unique concept of the universe, in which ancestors continue to exist alongside the living. Records of these early achievements, and their diverse and unexpected expressions, often lie not in written history, but in how people marked the end of their lives: their dwellings for the afterlife. Tombs, and the treasures within them, are almost the only artefacts to survive from Ancient China; their scale and sophistication rivals their equivalents in Ancient Egypt.Jessica Rawson, one of the most eminent Western scholars of China, explores twelve grand tombs - each from a specific historical moment and place - showing how they reveal wider political, dynastic and cultural developments, culminating in the lavish ambition of the First ...

The book covers a diverse range of materials, including low-alloy steels, stainless steels, ductile iron, rebar, and pipeline steel, and outlines the application of corrosion big data technology and artificial intelligence in the revealing of material corrosion mechanisms. The book discusses how typical metallurgical factors such as inclusion control, alloying control, and heat treatment control influence the corrosion resistance of stainless or low alloy steels and provides theoretical guidance for corrosion-resistant steel smelting technologies (e.g., inclusions regulation, alloy modulation, and rolling processes) by investigating the laws and mechanisms underlying the influence of various metallurgical factors on the corrosion resistance of steel. Steel Corrosion and Metallurgical Factors includes information on: Micro- chemical-electrochemical theory of corrosion initiation induced by various typical types of inclusions in stainless and low alloy steelsInfluence of elements such as Ca, Sb, Cu, and Cr on the resistance of low-alloy steels to microbial and marine atmospheric corrosionCoupled mechanism of microstructure and inclusions in ...
