Structure and Properties of Engineering AlloysA junior-senior level text and reference for use by materials engineers and mechanical engineers in courses entitled advanced physical metallurgy. Foundations of Materials Science and Engineering is designed for a first course in materials science and engineering for engineering students. Understanding that this might be a student's first exposure to materials science, the book presents essential topics in a clear, concise manner, without extraneous details to overwhelm newcomers. Industrial examples and photographs used throughout the book give students a look at the many ways material science and engineering are applied in the real world. Author: William F Smith, University of Central Florida. Publisher's note. |
