Materials Selection for Design and Manufacturing: Theory and Practice

by Joseph Datsko

Overview

Providing an analytical approach to selecting the best metal and obtaining optimal properties for and in a fabricated part, this text correlates weldability, formability and machinability with a metal's chemical composition through microstructures. It begins with a review of the principles of materials science and offers useful features, such as end-of-chapter problems and a solutions manual.

Editorial Reviews

...provides invaluable information on material properties, effective design and selection of materials for the manufacturing end. "...geared to serve as a textbook for a one semester engineering course...students could make use of the excellent references provided at the end of each chapter.

Materials and Manufacturing Processes

A reference/text introducing strength analysis, a new method of calculating material strength that considers type, sense, direction, and prior strain history. After a review of basic concepts of materials science and microstructures, coverage includes concepts of strength analysis following thermal processing and deformational processing, and the relationship of a metal's machinability to its physical properties. Includes study and example problems. For professionals, advanced undergraduates, and graduate students in materials science, industrial manufacturing, and metallurgy.
