To provide a treatment of manufacturing that is modern and quantitative. Its claim to be ‘modern’ is based on (1) Its balanced coverage of the basic engineering materials (metals, ceramics, polymers, and composite materials) (2) Its inclusion of recently developed manufacturing processes in addition to the traditional processes that have been used and refines over many years, and (3) Its co…
Most introductory books on manufacturing processes focus almost exclusively on metals. Although metals are certainly important, ceramics, polymers, composites, and silicon are increasingly important as engineering and manufacturing materials today. The second edition of 'Fundamentals of Modern Manufacturing' provides a comprehensive treatment of these other materials and their processing, with…
