Materials for engineers / William F. Hosford.

Call Number	620.1/1
Author	Hosford, William F., author.
Title	Materials for engineers / William F. Hosford.
Physical Description	1 online resource (xv, 278 pages) : digital, PDF file(s).
Notes	Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).
Contents	Phases -- Diffusion -- Mechanical behavior -- Mechanical failure -- Annealing -- Iron and steel -- Nonferrous metals -- Casting and welding -- Solid shaping -- Polymers -- Polymer processing -- Glasses -- Crystalline ceramics -- Powder processing -- Pottery and concrete.
Summary	This text is intended for a first undergraduate course in materials science and engineering with an emphasis on mechanical and electrical properties. The text features numerous useful examples and exercises. It differs from available texts in that it covers the materials of greatest interest in most undergraduate programs, leaving more specialized and advanced coverage for later course books. The text begins with phases and phase diagrams. This is followed by a chapter on diffusion, which treats diffusion in multiphase systems as well as single-phase systems. The next several chapters on mechanical behavior and failure should be of particular interest to mechanical engineers. There are chapters on iron and steel and on nonferrous alloys followed by chapters on specific types of materials. There is an emphasis on manufacturing, including recycling, casting and welding, powder processing, solid forming, and more modern techniques including photolithography, vapor deposition and the use of lasers.
Subject	Materials Textbooks.
