商品描述
Principles and Practice of Forensic Mechanical Engineering explains the physical processes and causes of failures that result in physical or bodily damage. It discusses the nature of defects and defines the three types - design defects, manufacturing defects and service defects - with supporting examples of each.
Drawing on the author's decades of experience, the book advises mechanical engineers how to investigate the cause of an incident, evaluate responsibility, and prepare a report of the results. Rather than focusing solely on theoretical aspects of physics or chemistry, readers will learn how physical and chemical principles can be applied to solve real-world cases. Through numerous examples, the book emphasizes the need for not only technical knowledge but also thinking outside the box to resolve challenging cases.
This book supplies essential knowledge about forensic procedures to help mechanical engineers become involved in and efficiently practice forensics.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
《法醫機械工程的原則與實踐》解釋了導致身體或物理損害的失敗的物理過程和原因。它討論了缺陷的性質,並定義了三種類型的缺陷——設計缺陷、製造缺陷和服務缺陷,並提供了每種類型的支持性範例。
本書根據作者數十年的經驗,指導機械工程師如何調查事件的原因、評估責任並準備結果報告。本書不僅專注於物理或化學的理論方面,讀者將學習如何將物理和化學原則應用於解決現實世界的案例。通過眾多範例,本書強調不僅需要技術知識,還需要跳出框架思考以解決具有挑戰性的案例。
本書提供了有關法醫程序的基本知識,幫助機械工程師參與並有效地實踐法醫工作。
作者簡介
Fredric M. Blum has practiced forensic mechanical engineering full-time for more than 46 years and currently works as an independent practitioner. Mr. Blum has investigated thousands of cases on behalf of plaintiffs, defendants, insurance companies and attorneys, written thousands of reports, given deposition testimony numerous times and testified in court more than two hundred times. He received a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Drexel University, USA, in 1963 and a master's degree in Business Administration from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, USA, in 1965. He is also a Certified Fire & Explosion Investigator. Early in his career, Mr. Blum was employed for four years as a systems analyst at Auerbach Corp., Philadelphia, USA, and for five years as a systems analyst and Technical Manager at Analytics, Inc., Willow Grove, USA. For four years thereafter, he worked in construction carpentry and founded and operated his own residential design and construction company in Santa Fe, NM. For most of his career as a forensic mechanical engineer, he was affiliated with Paul Zamrowski Associates, West Chester, PA. Mr. Blum has authored several articles on forensic mechanical engineering, including "Oil Burner Fires" (1980), "Kerosene Heater Fires" (1981) and "Soot Contamination from Oil Burners, Gas Appliances & Candles" (2002).
