Engineering Materials Science (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781258237837)

Engineering Materials Science by Cedric William Richards is a comprehensive textbook that covers the fundamental principles and properties of materials used in engineering. The book is divided into three parts: Part I covers the structure and properties of metals, ceramics, and polymers, Part II covers the processing and properties of materials, and Part III covers the selection and design of materials. The book starts with an introduction to materials science and engineering, followed by a detailed explanation of the atomic structure of materials. It then goes on to cover crystal structures, imperfections in crystals, and mechanical properties of materials. The book also covers the electrical, magnetic, and thermal properties of materials. Part II of the book covers the processing of materials, including casting, forming, and welding. It also covers the properties of materials that are influenced by processing, such as microstructure and texture. Part III of the book covers the selection and design of materials, including material selection for specific applications, such as aerospace, biomedical, and electronic applications. The book also covers the principles of materials design, including materials selection, design constraints, and optimization techniques. Overall, Engineering Materials Science is a comprehensive textbook that covers the fundamental principles and properties of materials used in engineering, making it an essential resource for students and professionals in the field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
