Materials Selection in Mechanical Design, 5/e (Paperback)

Materials Selection in Mechanical Design, Fifth Edition, describes the procedures for material selection in mechanical design in order to ensure that the most suitable materials for a given application are identified from the full range of materials and section shapes available. Extensively revised for this fifth edition, the book is recognized as one of the leading materials selection texts, providing a unique and innovative resource for students, engineers, and product/industrial designers.

• Includes significant revisions to chapters on advanced materials selection methods and process selection, with coverage of newer processing developments such as additive manufacturing
• Contains a broad scope of new material classes covered in the text with expanded data tables that include “functional” materials such as piezoelectric, magnetostrictive, magneto-caloric, and thermo-electric materials
• Presents improved pedagogy, such as new worked examples throughout the text and additional end-of-chapter exercises (moved from an appendix to the relevant chapters) to aid in student learning and to keep the book fresh for instructors through multiple semesters
• “Forces for Change” chapter has been re-written to outline the links between materials and sustainable design

《機械設計中的材料選擇，第五版》描述了機械設計中的材料選擇程序，以確保從所有可用的材料和截面形狀中確定最適合特定應用的材料。本書經過廣泛修訂，被認為是領先的材料選擇教材之一，為學生、工程師和產品/工業設計師提供了獨特且創新的資源。

• 對高級材料選擇方法和工藝選擇的章節進行了重大修訂，包括對新的加工發展（如增材製造）的覆蓋


• 在文本中涵蓋了廣泛的新材料類別，擴展了包括“功能性”材料（如壓電材料、磁致伸縮材料、磁熱材料和熱電材料）在內的數據表


• 提供了改進的教學方法，例如在整個文本中新增了新的實例，並增加了章節結尾的練習題（從附錄移到相應的章節），以幫助學生學習，並使教材在多個學期中保持新鮮


• 重新撰寫了“變革力量”章節，概述了材料與可持續設計之間的聯繫
