Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Widely adopted globally, this core materials science and engineering text serves third- and fourth-year undergraduate students, offering a broad introduction to the mechanical and environmental properties of materials in diverse engineering applications. The concise format presents each chapter as a single lecture, with content organized into groups focused on specific property classes. Each group includes definitions, measurement techniques, underlying principles, and materials selection methods, concluding with case studies that illustrate real-world engineering challenges. The 5th edition features expanded coverage of properties, new case studies, additional exercises, and enhanced pedagogy. It is suitable as a standalone text for a one-semester course or as an introductory resource alongside its companion volume for a two-semester sequence. New chapters address magnetic, optical, thermal, and electrical properties, complemented by relevant case studies. The pedagogy has been improved with more photographs, a new glossary, additional worked examples, and 50% more graded exercises. The discussion of supply and demand has been refined, and the text explores how nanomaterials differ from larger-scale materials. Additionally, new case studies focus on medical materials and biomaterials.
