Opis

From a cross-disciplinary perspective that reflects both the multifunc tionality of many materials and the wide scope industrial needs, the a uthor examines the practical applications of metal, ceramic, polymer, cement, carbon, and composite materials across a broad range of indust ries. The topics addressed include electronic packaging, smart materia ls, thermal management, nondestructive evaluation, and materials devel opment. The text is clear, coherent, and tutorial in style, includes n umerous up-to-date references, and provides background material in a s eries of appendices. Unique in its breadth of coverage of both materi als and their applications, Applied Materials Science is both scientif ically rich and technologically relevant. If you work or teach those t hat aspire to work in an engineering capacity, you will find no text o r reference that better prepares its readers for real-world applicatio ns of engineering materials.
