Description
This work is designed to provide mechanical engineers, materials scientists and metallurgists with an understanding of the basic principles of materials selection as practised in engineering manufacture with an overview of established materials usage. The book places emphasis on identifying service requirements and materials relate to those requirements, rather than listing materials and describing applications.
