Student design engineers often require a "cookbook" approach to
solving certain problems in mechanical engineering. With this focus
on providing simplified information that is easy to retrieve,
retired mechanical design engineer Keith L. Richards has written
Design Engineer's Handbook. This book conveys the author's insights
from his decades of experience in fields ranging from machine tools
to aerospace. Sharing the vast knowledge and experience that has
served him well in his own career, this book is specifically aimed
at the student design engineer who has left full- or part-time
academic studies and requires a handy reference handbook to use in
practice. Full of material often left out of many academic
references, this book includes important in-depth coverage of key
topics, such as: Effects of fatigue and fracture in catastrophic
failures Lugs and shear pins Helical compression springs
Thick-walled or compound cylinders Cam and follower design Beams
and torsion Limits and fits and gear systems Use of Mohr's circle
in both analytical and experimental stress analysis This guide has
been written not to replace established primary reference books but
to provide a secondary handbook that gives student designers
additional guidance. Helping readers determine the most efficiently
designed and cost-effective solutions to a variety of engineering
problems, this book offers a wealth of tables, graphs, and detailed
design examples that will benefit new mechanical engineers from all
walks.
