Synopsis
Explore how engineering design fights failure. This book collects 23 papers from the 25th Mechanical Failures Prevention Group meeting, held at the National Bureau of Standards. It centers on applying design to prevent failures and improve reliability.
Edited by T. R. Shives and W. A. Willard, these proceedings summarize techniques, materials, and validation methods used in design to reduce risk and liability. The content spans design methods, materials choices, and real-world considerations for space, aerospace, and other engineering fields.
Readers will find discussions of modeling, testing, and failure analysis, along with case studies that tie design decisions to outcomes in practice. The material emphasizes practical approaches to designing safer, more reliable systems.
- A survey of design techniques used to avoid failures.
- Insights into materials of design, coatings, lubricants, and composites.
- Validation and reliability methods for engineering design.
- Implications for product liability and safety criteria in design decisions.
Ideal for engineers and managers seeking concrete methods to reduce failure risk and improve reliability in complex systems.
