The Science and Engineering of Materials, Enhanced, 7/e (SI Edition)(Paperback)

Ensure that your engineering students understand the relationships between structure, processing and properties of materials with Askeland/Wright's THE SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING OF MATERIALS, ENHANCED, SI, 7th Edition. This updated, comprehensive approach lets you select the topics best for your course, from a general overview to an emphasis on materials, mechanical behavior or physical properties. Complete, current coverage makes this edition a trusted reference for students throughout future coursework. This science-based approach highlights how the structure of materials at various length scales gives rise to materials properties. Students examine how the connection between structure and properties is key to innovating – from synthesis of new materials to new applications of existing materials. Readers also learn how time, loading and environment impact materials -- a key concept often overlooked when using charts and databases to select materials. WebAssign lets you further customize new content to your course needs.
