This textbook on machine design emphasizes failure theory and analysis as well as the synthesis and design aspects of machine elements. The book points out the commonality of the analytical approaches needed to design a wide variety of elements and emphasizes the use of computer-aided engineering as an approach to the design and analysis of these classes of problems. Nine case studies are used to present different aspects of the same design problem which illustrate concepts behind different design problems while computer software is integrated throughout the text to facilitate parametric studies and give the students a more realistic design experience. TK Solver is the equation solver used in the software and all examples and case studies are included on the software.
