About the Author
ABOUT THE AUTHOR, Don Wulpi: A metallurgical consultant in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Donald J. Wulpi, studied and analyzed failures of metal parts for more than 45 years. A graduate of Lehigh University, with a degree in metallurgical engineering, he spent most of his working life in several metallurgical laboratories of the International Harvester Co., now Navistar International Corporation. In retirement, Mr. Wulpi devoted himself to teaching the principles of failure analysis at the ASM International headquarters, in Materials Park, Ohio, and at various companies throughout the United States. He testified as an expert witness in product litigation cases for many years.
ABOUT THE EDITOR: Brett Miller is a metallurgical engineer with degrees from the Missouri University of Science and Technology and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 3rd Edition. BOX packed with padding! 3rd Edition. Pages: not written on, clean, bright, odor free. Cover: light scuffs. Ships from California. Ships same or next day! ABOUT: Understanding How Components Fail, 3rd Edition by Donald J. Wulpi, edited by Brett Miller, is a leading reference on failure analysis, teaching engineers, technicians, and metallurgists how to determine why mechanical components fail and how similar failures can be prevented in the future. The third edition was published by ASM International in 2013 and is widely regarded as an introductory yet comprehensive guide to materials and metallurgical failure analysis. The book explains the science and methodology behind investigating failed parts, structures, and machines. Its central premise is that failure is rarely random. By carefully examining fracture surfaces, wear patterns, corrosion damage, material properties, service conditions, and manufacturing history, an analyst can identify the root cause of a component's failure. Rather than focusing on a single industry, the book provides principles that apply across manufacturing, transportation, energy production, aerospace, construction, and industrial machinery. Examples are primarily drawn from metals and alloys, but the analytical methods have broader application. Major Topics Covered The text progresses from basic concepts to advanced failure mechanisms, including: Failure analysis procedures and investigative techniques Mechanical properties of materials Stress versus strength relationships Residual stresses Distortion failures Brittle fracture Ductile fracture Fatigue failure Abrasive and adhesive wear Fatigue wear Corrosion failures Elevated-temperature failures Fracture mechanics and crack growth analysis.
