Foundations of Materials Science and Engineering provides an eminently
readable and understandable overview of engineering materials for
undergraduate students. This fifth SI edition offers a fully revised chemistry
chapter and a new chapter on biochemicals, as well as a new taxonomy
of homework problems that will help students and instructors gauge and
set goals for student learning. Through concise explanations, numerous
worked-out examples, a wealth of illustrations and photographs, and a new
set of online resources, the fifth edition provides the most student-friendly
introduction to the science and engineering of materials.
New and retained features of the text:
Fully revised chemistry chapter (Chapter 2), with a succinct
presentation of important and historical breakthroughs and updated
scientific theories, concepts, and interpretations.
New chapter on biomaterials (Chapter 17), with extensive coverage
of both biocompatible materials (metals, ceramics, polymers, and
composites) and biological materials.
More than 1,200 end-of-chapter problems, many of which are new to
the fifth edition.
Videos, tutorials, and highly interactive virtual laboratory experiments
are available to maintain the interest of the students in the presented
materials.
Chapter openers give readers a sense of how engineers use each
chapter’s contents in the real world.
Learning objectives outline major concepts at the start of each chapter
to help students focus on the most essential big-picture topics.
Icons in the margins highlight online supplements throughout the
text.
