Introduces Emerging Engineering Materials Mechanical, materials,
and production engineering students can greatly benefit from
Engineering Materials: Research, Applications and Advances. This
text focuses heavily on research, and fills a need for current
information on the science, processes, and applications in the
field. Beginning with a brief overview, the book provides a
historical and modern perspective on material science, and
describes various types of engineering materials. It examines the
industrial process for emerging materials, determines practical use
under a wide range of conditions, and establishes what is needed to
produce a new generation of materials. Covers Basic Concepts and
Practical Applications The book consists of 18 chapters and covers
a variety of topics that include functionally graded materials,
auxetic materials, whiskers, metallic glasses, biocomposite
materials, nanomaterials, superalloys, superhard materials,
shape-memory alloys, and smart materials. The author outlines the
latest advancements, including futuristic plastics, sandwich
composites, and biodegradable composites, and highlights special
kinds of composites, including fire-resistant composites, marine
composites, and biomimetics. He also factors in current examples,
future prospects, and the latest research underway in materials
technology. Contains approximately 160 diagrams and 85 tables
Incorporates examples, illustrations, and applications used in a
variety of engineering disciplines Includes solved numerical
examples and objective questions with answers Engineering
Materials: Research, Applications and Advances serves as a textbook
and reference for advanced/graduate students in mechanical
engineering, materials engineering, production engineering,
physics, and chemistry, and relevant researchers and practicing
professionals in the field of materials science.
