		Materials Selection in Mechanical Design, Fourth Edition

Understanding materials, their properties and behavior is fundamental to engineering design, and a key application of materials science. Written for all students of engineering, materials science and design, this book describes the procedures for material selection in mechanical design in order to ensure that the most suitable materials for a given application are identified from the full range of materials and section shapes available.

Extensively revised for this fourth edition, Materials Selection in Mechanical Design is recognized as one of the leading materials selection texts, and provides a unique and genuinely innovative resource.

Features new to this edition
* Material property charts now in full color throughout
* Significant revisions of chapters on engineering materials, processes and process selection, and selection of material and shape while retaining the book's hallmark structure and subject content
* Fully revised chapters on hybrid materials and materials and the environment
* Appendix on data and information for engineering materials fully updated
* Revised and expanded end-of-chapter exercises and additional worked examples

Materials are introduced through their properties; materials selection charts (also available on line) capture the important features of all materials, allowing rapid retrieval of information and application of selection techniques. Merit indices, combined with charts, allow optimization of the materials selection process. Sources of material property data are reviewed and approaches to their use are given. Material processing and its influence on the design are discussed. New chapters on environmental issues, industrial engineering and materials design are included, as are new worked examples, exercise materials and a separate, online Instructor's Manual. New case studies have been developed to further illustrate procedures and to add to the practical implementation of the text.

Informative book with clear, concise writing. It uses the kinds of words you are accustomed to hearing in real life versus academic publications. It is very understandable and well-written.

The one problem I have is there are numerous problems in the calculations of many examples. I say this because my teacher has incorporated finding these mistakes into homework assignments... there are many! Please make sure to re-do any math you see!

Ashby is truly a master of materials engineering. I recommend this book to any student trying to become more adept at specifying design constraints with material selection in mind. There are several interesting examples to walk through the material selection process.

This is a superb book to get into a creative design mindset grounded in proper engineering. This book includes a lot of practical rules of thumb that are hard to come by such as the value of weight savings typically tolerable.

This book, which remains on my shelf for reference, is a great introduction to basic materials selection. Michael Ashby is the creator of the famed Ashby charts (materials selection charts) which make narrowing down materials choices for nearly any application far easier; this book has a wealth of these charts and all of the information necessary to use and understand them.

Recommended for any beginning materials scientist/engineer or mechanical engineer.

This is by far the best mechanical engineering book I've ever owned and I wish I had had it 30 years ago. Engineering departments at Universities should provide courses using this as a textbook. If you have the responsibility of choosing materials or designing new products, this book will be immensely helpful. It also shows why all the things around us are made from different materials. In the spirit of the book, I would say its benefit/cost ratio is excellent.
