Introduction to Materials Science and Engineering: A Design-Led Approach is ideal for a first course in materials for mechanical, civil, biomedical, aerospace and other engineering disciplines. The authors' systematic method includes first analyzing and selecting properties to match materials to design through the use of real-world case studies and then examining the science behind the material properties to better engage students whose jobs w...

Materials and Sustainable Development, Second Edition, written by noted materials selection authority Mike Ashby, provides a structure and framework for analyzing sustainable development and the role of materials in it. The book's aim is to introduce ways of exploring sustainable development to readers in a way that avoids simplistic interpretations and approaches complexity in a systematic way. There is no completely 'right' answer to questio...

Materials and the Environment, Third Edition, discusses the history of our increasing dependence on materials and energy. The book explains where materials come from and how they are used in a variety of industries, along with their lifecycle and relationship to energy and carbon. In addition, it covers the controls and economic instruments that hinder the use of engineering materials, considers sustainability from a materials perspective, and...

Describing the structure and mechanics of a wide range of natural materials with a honeycomb- or foam-like structure (e.g. wood, cork, trabecular bone and coral), this book shows how models for cellular materials can be applied in medicine, such as metal foams in orthopedics and porous scaffolds for tissue engineering.

3rd edition of the essential materials engineering text and resource for students. Includes revised text and figures and new worked examples throughout.

Das nun in deutscher Ubersetzung vorliegende Lehrbuch von Ashby und Jones ist ein Musterbeispiel angelsachsischer Padagogik: Es hat nicht den Ehrgeiz, zu deuten, "was die Welt im Innersten zusammen­ halt", sondern es geht nuchtern daran, dem studentischen Leser zu zeigen, wie praktische Werkstoffprobleme der konstruktiven Technik fachgerecht gelost werden. Die Autoren bewerkstelligen dies mit einem leicht lesbaren (im wortlichen Sinne "ansprec...

This book, from note materials selection authority Mike Ashby, provides a structure and framework for analyzing sustainable development and the role of materials in it. The aim is to introduce ways of exploring sustainable development to readers in a way that avoids simplistic interpretations and approaches complexity in a systematic way. There is no completely "right" answer to questions of sustainable development - instead, there is a though...

A one-stop desk reference, for engineers involved in the use of engineered materials across engineering and electronics, this book will not gather dust on the shelf. It brings together the essential professional reference content from leading international contributors in the field. Material ranges from basic to advanced topics, including materials and process selection and explanations of properties of metals, ceramics, plastics and composite...

Kurzweilig geschrieben, didaktisch überzeugend sowie fachlich umfassend und hochkompetent: Diesen Qualitäten verdanken die beiden Bände des Ashby/Jones schon seit Jahren ihre führende Stellung unter den englischsprachigen Lehrbüchern der Werkstoffkunde. Mit profundem Fachwissen, stets verständlichen, auf der Erfahrungswelt junger Studenten aufsattelnden Erklärungen, vielen Fallbeispielen zu alltäglichen wie technischen Werkstoffanwendungen und...
