Full coverage of manufacturing and management in mechanical
engineering
Mechanical Engineers' Handbook, Fourth Edition provides a quick guide
to specialized areas that engineers may encounter in their work,
providing access to the basics of each and pointing toward trusted
resources for further reading, if needed. The book's accessible
information offers discussions, examples, and analyses of the topics
covered, rather than the straight data, formulas, and calculations found
in other handbooks. No single engineer can be a specialist in all areas
that they are called upon to work in. It's a discipline that covers a
broad range of topics that are used as the building blocks for
specialized areas, including aerospace, chemical, materials, nuclear,
electrical, and general engineering.
This third volume of Mechanical Engineers' Handbook covers
Manufacturing & Management, and provides accessible and in-depth access
to the topics encountered regularly in the discipline: environmentally
benign manufacturing, production planning, production processes and
equipment, manufacturing systems evaluation, coatings and surface
engineering, physical vapor deposition, mechanical fasteners, seal
technology, statistical quality control, nondestructive inspection,
intelligent control of material handling systems, and much more.
