Engineering Materials, Volume 2 expands upon the coverage offered in Volume 1, and together provide a comprehensive and highly practical review of basic science of materials technology for all engineering students. Both volumes have been rewritten and updated to match the requirements of the Advanced GNVQ, and BTEC NC/D and HNC/D Engineering specifications, and also form an excellent introduction to first-year engineering degree courses. This volume is divided into three key sections covering metallic materials, non-metallic materials and materials in service. Part A - Metallic materials covers: alloy steels, the heat treatment of steels, welded and brazed metals and corrosion prevention. Part B - Non-metallic materials covers: ceramics and composites, polymeric (plastic) materials and synthetic adhesives. Part C - Materials in service covers: deformation and failure of materials, bearings and bearing materials, tool materials, electrical properties of materials and semiconductor materials and manufacturing processes.This book leads naturally from the companion volume Engineering Materials Volume 1, intended as an introduction to the basic science of materials. The two volumes should be studied together for a full understanding of the materials and processes used in the study of Engineering Materials. The broad coverage of this two-volume approach ensures that these core texts not only satisfy the requirements of technician engineers up to the highest level but also provide an excellent technical background for undergraduates studying for a degree in mechanical engineering, materials engineering or combined engineering. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

ENGINEERING MATERIALS
VOLUME 1
Second Edition
Studying for an engineering qualification?
Looking for a concise but comprehensive introduction to engineering materials?
More interested in the practical aspects of the subject than in the science and theory?
If you have answered 'yes' to any of these questions then this book is for you!
Engineering Materials Volume 1 provides a comprehensive and highly practical introduction to the basic science of materials technology for all engineering students. This new edition has been rewritten and updated to reflect the requirements of the Advanced GNVQ and BTEC NC/D Engineering specifications. As such it also forms an ideal introduction to the subject for first-year degree courses in engineering.
The book has been redesigned in a larger format and all illustrations have been reviewed and redrawn. The text has been brought fully up to date with current examples and now includes more student-oriented features such as chapter summaries, self-assessment exercises and end-of-chapter questions. Also new for this edition is a chapter on material selection for engineered products.
Topics covered include: basic science of materials; alloying of metals; plain carbon steels and cast irons, and their heat treatment; non-ferrous metals, their alloys and heat treatment; polymeric materials; bearing materials; material shaping and testing (destructive and non-destructive); performance of materials in service and their selection.
This book leads naturally into the companion volume Engineering Materials Volume 2, intended for students studying materials at a more advanced level such as HNC/D and second-year engineering degree courses. The broad coverage of this two-volume approach ensures that these core texts not only satisfy the requirements of technician engineers up to the highest level but also provide an excellent technical background for undergraduates studying for a degree in mechanical engineering, materials engineering or combined engineering.
