Introducing a new engineering product or changing an existing model
involves developing designs, reaching economic decisions, selecting
materials, choosing manufacturing processes, and assessing
environmental impact. These activities are interdependent and
should not be performed in isolation from each other. This is
because the materials and processes used in making a product can
have a major influence on its design, cost, and performance in
service. This Fourth Edition of the best-selling Materials and
Process Selection for Engineering Design takes all of this into
account and has been comprehensively revised to reflect the many
advances in the fields of materials and manufacturing, including:
Increasing use of additive manufacturing technology, especially in
biomedical, aerospace and automotive applications Emphasizing the
environmental impact of engineering products, recycling, and
increasing use of biodegradable polymers and composites Analyzing
further into weight reduction of products through design changes as
well as material and process selection, especially in manufacturing
products such as electric cars Discussing new methods for solving
multi-criteria decision-making problems, including multi-component
material selection as well as concurrent and geometry-dependent
selection of materials and joining technology Increasing use of
MATLAB by engineering students in solving problems This textbook
features the following pedagogical tools: New and updated practical
case studies from industry A variety of suggested topics and
background information for in-class group work Ideas and background
information for reflection papers so readers can think critically
about the material they have read, give their interpretation of the
issues under discussion and the lessons learned, and then propose a
way forward Open-book exercises and questions at the end of each
chapter where readers are evaluated on how they use the material,
rather than how well they recall it, in addition to the traditional
review questions Includes a solutions manual and PowerPoint lecture
materials for adopting professors Aimed at students in mechanical,
manufacturing, and materials engineering, as well as professionals
in these fields, this book provides the practical know-how in order
to choose the right materials and processes for development of new
or enhanced products.
