While focusing on the fundamentals of component design, this practical text helps readers learn how to solve engineering problems that involve mechanical components. A proven problem–solving methodology guides readers through the process of formulating machine component problems accurately and presenting solutions clearly.

In addition, numerous solved examples and end–of–chapter problems help readers master the material. Graphical procedures help readers visualize the solution format, develop added insight about the significance of the results, and determine how the design can be improved.

FREE WITH THE UPDATED EDITION
  • A new CD–ROM, containing worked solutions to 80 problems in the text and an interactive case study featuring animation, disassembly, and re–engineering of a transmisson based on the Chrysler 42LE. NEW FEATURES OF THE THIRD EDITION
    • Open–ended design problems have been added to most chapters. These problems are based on making decisions that involve materials, geometry, and operating conditions.

At this price, the book is certainly a steal at on offer for Rs 275. The book is very well presented in terms of Topics right from the basics of SOM to the design concepts of machine components, it is well complimented with beautiful diagrams and illustrations. The book is ISV from 2006 & not printed in India, but the paper quality is too good (thick, may be high GSM). This is an excellent text for students and engineers.
Practical use of energy theorems, fatigue analysis, intro to fracture mechanics is included. Most numericals are complimented with illustrations & that is a plus point of this book also that other authors miss on, including a systematic problem solving methodology. This book needs to be complimented with other texts and references because the formulae sometimes will pop up here and there. Overall this book has superb content & also solid build and surely will come for a long time. Although there are great texts on Machine design this book can be very well paired with most of them. Highly recommend this title.

Required textbook for a Machine Design course. Much more accessible than Shigley's (although that is apparently a classic textbook on Machine Design - I have both). Better explanations and seemingly more thorough on the applications side compared to Shigley's.

Non c'è che dire, è sicuramente il libro perfetto per iniziare la progettazione di componenti meccanici. Il prezzo è elevato per un libro del suo genere visto che in media vengono 60 euro, però si ripaga nel tempo.conciso, semplice e pratico
