Introduction to Materials Science and Engineering: A Design-Led Approach is ideal for a first course in materials for mechanical, civil, biomedical, aerospace and other engineering disciplines. The authors’ systematic method includes first analyzing and selecting properties to match materials to design through the use of real-world case studies and then examining the science behind the material properties to better engage students whose jobs will be centered on design or applied industrial research. As with Ashby’s other leading texts, the book emphasizes visual communication through material property charts and numerous schematics better illustrate the origins of properties, their manipulation and fundamental limits.
"Manufacturing and Design" presents a fresh view on the world of industrial production: thinking in terms of both abstraction levels and trade-offs. The book invites its readers to distinguish between what is possible in principle for a certain process (as determined by physical law); what is possible in practice (the production method as determined by industrial state-of-the-art); and what is possible for a certain supplier (as determined by its production equipment). Specific processes considered here include metal forging, extrusion, and casting; plastic injection molding and thermoforming; additive manufacturing; joining; recycling; and more. By tackling the field of manufacturing processes from this new
angle, this book makes the most out of a reader's limited time. It
gives the knowledge needed to not only create well-producible
designs, but also to understand supplier needs in order to find the
optimal compromise. Apart from improving design for production,
this publication raises the standards of thinking about
producibility.
