Description
Book SynopsisDevelop a thorough understanding of the relationships between structure, processing and the properties of materials with Askeland/Wright's THE SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING OF MATERIALS, ENHANCED, SI, 7th Edition. This updated, comprehensive edition serves as a useful professional reference tool both now and throughout future coursework in manufacturing, materials, design or materials selection.This science-based approach to materials engineering highlights how the structure of materials at various length scales gives rise to materials properties. You examine how the connection between structure and properties is key to innovating with materials, both in the synthesis of new materials as well as in new applications with existing materials. You also learn how time, loading and environment all impact materials -- a key concept that is often overlooked when using charts and databases to select materials. Trust this enhanced edition for insights into success in materials engineering today.
