This is the ultimate materials engineering text and resource for students developing skills and understanding of materials properties and selection for engineering applications. Written by world class authors, it takes a unique design led-approach that is broader in scope than other texts, thereby meeting the curriculum needs of a wide variety of courses in the materials and design field, from introduction to materials science and engineering to engineering materials, materials selection and processing, and materials in design. This new edition retains its design-led focus and strong emphasis on visual communication while expanding its treatment of crystallography and phase diagrams and transformations to fully meet the needs of instructors teaching a first-year course in materials. The book is fully linked with the leading materials software package used in over 600 academic institutions worldwide as well as numerous government and commercial engineering departments.* A complete introduction to the science and selection of materials in engineering, manufacturing, processing and product design * Unbeatable package from Professor Mike Ashby, the world's leading materials selection innovator and developer of the Granta Design materials selection software * Fully linked with the leading materials selection software used widely in acadmic institutions and brand-name corporations worldwide, which shows how to optimize materials choice for products by performance, characteristics or cost
