Product Description

Provides comprehensive treatment of the mechanical behavior of materials within a balanced mechanics-materials approach. Covering a range of materials, including metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites, this book presents the properties of materials while addressing the principal ideas behind theories of mechanical behavior. It includes broad treatment of flow and fracture criteria. It presents various mechanisms for tailoring the strength and toughness of materials. It also provides references and a list of suggested readings in each chapter. A valuable reference book on the mechanical behavior of materials for all practicing Mechanical and Materials Engineers.

Book Description
A balanced mechanics-materials approach and coverage of the latest developments in biomaterials and electronic materials , this a thorough and modern textbook for upper-level undergraduates. The fundamental mechanisms at micro- and nano-meter level are presented across a wide-range of materials, with mathematical simplicity and a conceptual focus.

book quality January 22, 2008
The half tones in this printing are horrible; there is an International Edition available with far better pictures.

Undergrad Review March 14, 2006
I used this book for an undergraduate course and wow does this book suck alot. The book does not explain the material very well and the index is next to useless. This book might work decent for graduate studies, but I still think it could be better.

5 out of 5 stars

One of the best textbooks available August 22, 2003
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I read this book in preparation for my Ph.D. Qualifying Examinations in Materials Science Engineering. It is one of the best textbooks I have ever read, and the only one I have read from cover to cover. The material is covered at an even pace, with lots of equations and figures to help the text. The page layout is great with text, figures, and other data spaced evenly throughout. The book is easy enough for undergraduate students to read, yet it contains enough data for practicing engineers to use as a reference.
