Engineering Design with Polymers and Composites (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

With new chapters on polymer fusing, rapid prototyping, and piezoelectric polymers, this second edition provides one of the only textbooks on the analysis and design of mechanical components made from polymer materials. It explains how to create polymer materials to meet design specifications. The authors describe modern design concepts for selecting polymers and composites for design applications. They also present computer methods for choosing polymer materials from a database, for optimal design, and for laminated plate design. A solutions manual is available for qualifying instructors.
