DESCRIPTION:
For the mechanical engineer, materials engineer, aeronautical engineer, structural engineer, design engineer, or test engineer.. Explains test methods and the principles behind them, and explores engineering methods for predicting strength and life, with real-date worked examples. Praised by readers for its usefulness, this book covers the entire area of mechanical behavior of materials from a practical engineering viewpoint, providing a single-source introductory analysis with specific coverage on materials testing, yield criteria, stress-based fatigue, fracture mechanics, crack growth, strain-based fatigue, and creep. Updated end-of-chapter references lead to sources of materials data and to more detailed information.
From the Publisher An exploration of the engineering methods used in industry for analyzing and predicting the mechanical behavior of materials.
Good textbook for students and junior engineers Alexandru Stere This book is a great reading for students or junior engineers who are just starting to work in Mechanical Engineering. However, a Senior Engineer and any experienced practician will look for something more deep.. "Excellent text!" according to G. Stauffer. I thought that this was an excellent text!. A Customer said The best of its kind. This is a very comprehensive and well-written book. Unlike other books that are overly theoretical, this book emphasizes practical methods that are currently being used to solve real-world problems. The treatment of uniaxial fatigue (both stress-based and strain-based) is superb. The chapters on failure theories and The best of its kind This is a very comprehensive and well-written book. Unlike other books that are overly theoretical, this book emphasizes practical methods that are currently being used to solve real-world problems. The treatment of uniaxial fatigue (both stress-based and strain-based) is superb. The chapters on failure theories and 3-D stress/strain are also excellent. Some readers like myself, however, may want a little more coverage of multiaxial fatigue. There is also no coverage at all on column stability. However, if you've found that your college texts on Machine Design and Mecha. -D stress/strain are also excellent.
