Introduction to Materials Science and Engineering: A Design-Led Approach is the perfect text for a first course in materials for engineering students majoring in mechanical, civil, biomedical, aerospace and other engineering disciplines. The authors' systematic method of first analyzing and selecting properties to match materials to design through the use of real-world case studies, then examining the science behind the material properties, better engages students whose primary job responsibilities after graduation will be centered on engineering design or applied industrial research. As with Ashby's other leading texts, the book emphasizes visual communication through material property charts and numerous schematics to help students better understand the origins of properties, their manipulation and fundamental limits, and to provide a tool for selection of materials and for understanding the ways in which engineering materials are used.
