Designed for the general engineering student, Introduction to
Engineering Materials, Second Edition focuses on materials basics
and provides a solid foundation for the non-materials major to
understand the properties and limitations of materials. Easy to
read and understand, it teaches the beginning engineer what to look
for in a particular material, offers examples of materials usage,
and presents a balanced view of theory and science alongside the
practical and technical applications of material science.
Completely revised and updated, this second edition describes
the fundamental science needed to classify and choose materials
based on the limitations of their properties in terms of
temperature, strength, ductility, corrosion, and physical behavior.
The authors emphasize materials processing, selection, and property
measurement methods, and take a comparative look at the mechanical
properties of various classes of materials. Chapters include
discussions of atomic structure and bonds, imperfections in
crystalline materials, ceramics, polymers, composites, electronic
materials, environmental degradation, materials selection, optical
materials, and semiconductor processing. Filled with case studies
to bring industrial applications into perspective with the material
being discussed, the text also includes a pictorial approach to
illustrate the fabrication of a composite.
Consolidating relevant topics into a logical teaching sequence,
Introduction to Engineering Materials, Second Edition provides a
concise source of useful information that can be easily translated
to the working environment and prepares the new engineer to make
educated materials selections in future industrialapplications.
