Without the ability to travel and to transport goods, s…
This book is designed for a first course in engineering materials. The field that covers this area of the engineering profession has come to be known as "materi¬als science and engineering." To me, this label serves two important functions. First, it is an accurate description of the balance between scientific principles and practical engineering that is required in selecting the proper materi…
This is not a typical textbook. Typical textbooks really serve as reference texts, a place where students can go to find information that they need. This text is .

Students learn by being actively engaged. The theory of const…

Technology and social media tools have made it easier than ever for companies to communicate with consumers.
