RE: metallurgy in power generation industries
For power plant metalurgy and the history of how materials are selected, I would start with "STEAM" (40th edition)by Babcock & Wilcox.
It is a primer, but is very specific about the selection, use and application of metals for power plant service....
See www.babcock.com/pgg/tt/steambook.html
I do not know of any comprable books for petroleum industry materials selection....
