DESCRIPTION:
"Great book; extremely useful and easy to navigate" according to Raj. Great book; extremely useful and easy to navigate, but the binding was awful. The book was nearly about to fall apart when I first got it. I am just glad they accepted my return when I was done with it.. The beam tables are pretty beaten up Some pages were torn, falling out, or even missing. The beam tables are pretty beaten up. Still got an A- in the class so I guess it was good enough.. Ahhh If it wasn't for my professor this book would have been burned! The end chapter exercises are barely about the chapter they are in and the examples are at least Ahhh Christopher Lai If it wasn't for my professor this book would have been burned! The end chapter exercises are barely about the chapter they are in and the examples are at least 4 pages long and very hard to follow! Don't use the beam tables in the back either, just look them up online!. pages long and very hard to follow! Don't use the beam tables in the back either, just look them up online!
For courses in Machine Design.Machine Design, 4/e, presents the subject matter in an up-to-date and thorough manner with a strong design emphasis. The book points out the commonality of the analytical approaches needed to design a wide variety of elements and emphasizes the use of computer-aided engineering as an approach to the design and analysis of these classes of problems. . This textbook emphasizes both failure theory and analysis as well as emphasizing the synthesis and design aspects of machine elements
Higgins II Distinguished Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Russell P. For five years he helped develop artificial-heart and noninvasive assisted-circulation (counterpulsation) devices at the Tufts New England Medical Center and Boston City Hospital. Since leaving industry to join academia, he has continued as an independent consultant on engineering projects ranging from disposable medical
The material is truly integrated. In each of the chapters covering a machine design component (Part II sections), there is a detailed discussion on the relevant failure modes (static, surface, and/or fatigue). “The book’s pedagogy is the best and most unique of the available mechanical engineering design texts. This integrated approach makes the text very helpful for students currently in the course, undertaking student design projects, and/or professional engineers.” — Ali Gordon, University of Central Florida “The text provides a wide amount of information for each of the machine design components. For example, in the section on gears, fatigue, yielding, and surface failure are all covered.” — Ali Gordon, University of Central Florida “Many of the formulations, tables, and figures throughout the book are in close resemblance to what engineers will encounter outside of the classroom.” — Ali Gordon, Univers
