DESCRIPTION:
The text is specifically aimed at automotive and mechanical engineering degree programmes and would be of value for modules in design, mechanical engineering design, design and manufacture, design studies, automotive power-train and transmission and tribology, as well as modules and project work incorporating a design element requiring knowledge about any of the content described.The aims and objectives described are achieved by a short introductory chapters on total design, mechanical engineering and machine elements followed by ten chapters on machine elements covering: bearings, shafts, gears, seals, chain and belt drives, clutches and brakes, springs, fasteners and miscellaneous mechanisms. This book introduces the subject of total design, and introduces the design and selection of various common mechanical engineering components and machine elements. The design methods where appropriate are developed to national and international standards (e.g. The last chapter serves to present an integrated design using the detailed design aspects covered within the book. The approach adopted of introducing and explaining the aspects of technology by means of text, photographs, diagrams and step-by-step procedures has bee

Good General Reference This is a reasonably "up to date" reference book for general mechanical design. The book has well organized solutions that include typical trial and error calculations that are close to real life design solutions where balance between what you need and what is available is often a necessary design compromise.. Great reference/student book Clear and concise, with examples and exercises for the student. Nice organization and logical structure. You can read this book in the order is presented or jump between chapters at ease.Thanks!. "Recommended" according to Aung Oo. It's a definitely good book. A must-buy for someone who is interested in designing. Very helpful for me during my design project.
''Excellent for detailed design studies.''An excellent txt to help students design specific components for a particular design application. Comments on textbook questionnaires from previous edition:'Good general text for Mechanical Engineering Design courses. In depth look at gears, shafts, bearings, etc. Highly recommended.'. This book is an excellent source of procedural and theoretical information
