About this title

Synopsis

A textbook suitable for two semesters of college instruction, one of which may be a first, required course in mechanical design, or for an advanced-level course for senior undergraduate and graduate students. It emphasizes mechanical design principles, with mechanical components serving to illustrate these principles. Problems vary from simple calculations to analyses of moderate difficulty.

From the Back Cover

Key Benefit: Rigorous in approach, this book provides the strong theoretical background -- based on the principles of mechanics -- necessary for mechanical component analysis and design. Unlike others on the subject, it integrates coverage of basics, failure prevention, and the design of mechanical elements, and provides a detailed and consistent presentation of the process of analysis -- from the underlying assumptions and limitations, to the final results, discussion of those results, references to alternative approaches, and numerous and interesting practical problems. Key Topics: Covers the full range of topics -- fluid-film lubrication and sliding element bearings; friction theory and applications; brakes, clutches, and belt drives; miscellaneous transmission components; stress, strain, and strength; design for fatigue strength and life, shaft design; thermal properties and stresses; residual stresses; threaded connections; axially symmetrical loading; mechanical components in flexure; surface contacts, cams, general shapes; and rolling-element bearing; spur, helical, bevel and worm gears; gear trains, power screws; torsion; impact. The Second Edition features updated coverage of gears and gear trains; boundary lubrication; threaded connections; nonlinear behavior of belleville springs; and large-deflections of beams. Market: For analytical mechanical engineers.
