The fifth edition of Manufacturing Processes for Engineering Materials has been completely updated, with numerous new and relevant materials and illustrations on all aspects of manufacturing. -- A 20% increase in the number of questions and problems. (the largest increase will be found in chapters on manufacturing processes) - Text now includes 1,445. -- Each chapter now begins with an outline describing briefly its objectives and contents. -- New or expanded topics for the 5e are: Rapid prototyping and rapid toolingNanomanufacturing and nanomaterialsMicromachining Design considerations in manufacturing Fabrication of micromechanical and microelectromechanical devices Holonic manufacturing systems Life-cycle engineering and sustainable manufacturing Mechanics of polymer processing and welding Incremental forming Communications networks Taguchi methods Web sites of organizations for information relevant to manufacturing -- A large number of cross-references have been added throughout the text to aid students and to offer a broader perspective to the often-complex interrelationships of the topics described. Core Features to Manufacturing Processes for Engineering Materials: Case studies?At the end of each chapter; these real-world studies are interesting, up-to-date, and are taken mostly from industry. * Demonstrates to students the relevance of the material with real-world examples. *Solutions manual assists instructors with homework grading and exam material. |
