Key Engineering Materials Volume 1

<p>With coverage of a broad range of key engineering materials this book provides a single comprehensive book summarizing all aspects involved in the functional materials production chain. It introduces state-of-the-art technology in key engineering materials emphasizing the rapidly growing technologies. It takes a unique approach by presenting specific materials then progresses into a discussion of the ways in which these novel materials and processes are integrated into today's functioning manufacturing industry.</p><p>The book follows a more quantitative and design-oriented approach than other texts in the market helping readers gain a better understanding of important concepts. They’ll also discover how material properties relate to the process variables in a given process as well as how to perform quantitative engineering analysis of manufacturing processes.</p>
