SynopsisProviding a balanced, current treatment of the full spectrum of engineering materials, this text covers all the physical properties, applications, and relevant properties associated with engineering materials. The text explores all the major categories of materials (metals, ceramics and glass, polymers, composites, and semiconductors) while also offering detailed examinations of a wide range of new materials with high-tech applications. Shackelford also provides a strong introductory chapter familiarizing students with the dynamic nature of the field, supported by a number of vivid photographs and illustrations.
