Mechanical Engineer's Reference Book, 12th Edition is a 19-chapter text that covers the basic principles of mechanical engineering. The first chapters discuss the principles of mechanical engineering, electrical and electronics, microprocessors, instrumentation, and control. The succeeding chapters deal with the applications of computers and computer-integrated engineering systems; the design standards; and materials' properties and selection. Considerable chapters are devoted to other basic knowledge in mechanical engineering, including solid mechanics, tribology, power units and transmission, fuels and combustion, and alternative energy sources. The remaining chapters explore other engineering fields related to mechanical engineering, including nuclear, offshore, and plant engineering. These chapters also cover the topics of manufacturing methods, engineering mathematics, health and safety, and units of measurements. This book will be of great value to mechanical engineers.
Extending in practice design-by-reliability concepts and techniques, this book addresses their application to key mechanical components and systems. The first part devotes a chapter to the reliability of each type of component, including pressure vessels, beams, gear, bearing, and electrical components. The second part provides tabular data on material strengths and their cycles to failure, covering cast iron, steel, aluminum, copper, magnesium, lead, and titanium. This is the ideal companion to the authors' Practical Tools and Applications and Fatigue of Mechanical Components volumes of his Robust Engineering Design by Reliability series.
