Introduction to Materials Science and Engineering: A Design-Led Approach is ideal for a first course in materials for mechanical, civil, biomedical, aerospace and other engineering disciplines. The authors' systematic method includes first analyzing and selecting properties to match materials to design through the use of real-world case studies and then examining the science behind the material properties to better engage students whose jobs will be centered on design or applied industrial research. As with Ashby's other leading texts, the book emphasizes visual communication through material property charts and numerous schematics better illustrate the origins of properties, their manipulation and fundamental limits.Design-led approach motivates and engages students in the study of materials science and engineering through real-life case studies and illustrative applicationsRequires a minimum level of math necessary for a first course in Materials Science and EngineeringHighly visual full color graphics facilitate understanding of materials concepts and propertiesChapters on materials selection and design are integrated with chapters on materials fundamentals, enabling students to see how specific fundamentals can be important to the design processSeveral topics are expanded separately as Guided Learning Units: Crystallography, Materials Selection in Design, Process Selection in Design, and Phase Diagrams and Phase TransformationsFor instructors, a solutions manual, image bank and other ancillaries are available at https://educate.elsevier.com/book/details/9780081023990

Materials: Engineering, Science, Processing and Design is the essential materials engineering text and resource for students developing skills and understanding of materials properties and selection for engineering applications. Taking a unique design-led approach that is broader in scope than other texts, Materials meets the curriculum needs of a wide variety of courses in the materials and design field, including introduction to materials science and engineering, engineering materials, materials selection and processing, and behavior of materials. This new edition retains its design-led focus and strong emphasis on visual communication while expanding its coverage of the physical basis of material properties, and process selection.Design-led approach motivates and engages students in the study of materials science and engineering through real-life case studies and illustrative applicationsHighly visual full color graphics facilitate understanding of materials concepts and propertiesChapters on materials selection and design are integrated with chapters on materials fundamentals, enabling students to see how specific fundamentals can be important to the design processFor instructors, a solutions manual, lecture slides, and image bank are available at https://educate.elsevier.com/book/details/9780081023761Links to Granta EduPack sample data sheets: https://www.grantadesign.com/education/ces-edupack/granta-edupack-data/ces-edupack-sample-datasheets/ for information

New to this edition

Expansion of the atomic basis of properties, and the distinction between bonding-sensitive and microstructure-sensitive propertiesProcess selection extended to include a structured approach to managing the expert knowledge of how materials, processes and design interact (with an introduction to additive manufacturing)Coverage of materials and the environment has been updated with a new section on Sustainability and Sustainable TechnologyText and figures have been revised and updated throughoutThe number of worked examples and end-of-chapter problems has been significantly increased
