Addressing the growing global concern for sustainable engineering, Materials and the Environment, 2e is the only book devoted exclusively to the environmental aspects of materials. It explains the way

As concern for the environment grows, there is a corresponding trend among colleges and universities worldwide to incorporate sustainability into engineering education. Addressing this growing trend "

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.

Materials and Sustainable Development, Second Edition, written by noted materials selection authority Mike Ashby, provides a structure and framework for analyzing sustainable development and the role of materials in it. The aim is to introduce ways of exploring sustainable development to readers in a way that avoids simplistic interpretations and approaches complexity in a systematic way. There is no completely right answer to questions of sustainable development - instead, there is a thoughtful, well-researched response that recognizes concerns of stakeholders, the conflicting priorities and the economic, legal and social aspects of a technology as well as its environmental legacy. The intent is not to offer solutions to sustainability challenges but rather to improve the quality of discussion and enable informed, balanced debate. The second edition has been updated to reflect new insights, regulatory trends, and other developments that have occurred since publication of the first

Widely adopted around the world, Engineering Materials 1 is a core materials science and engineering text for third- and fourth-year undergraduate students; it provides a broad introduction to the mec

Materials: Engineering, Science, Processing and Design, Fourth Edition, is the essential materials engineering text for students who need to develop an understanding of materials properties and select

Materials and the Environment, Third Edition, discusses the history of our increasing dependence on materials and energy. The book explains where materials come from and how they are used in a variety of industries, along with their lifecycle and relationship to energy and carbon. In addition, it covers the controls and economic instruments that hinder the use of engineering materials, considers sustainability from a materials perspective, and highlights the importance of low-carbon power and material efficiency.Further sections cover the mechanical, thermal and electrical properties of engineering metals, polymers, ceramics, composites and natural materials and their relationship to environmental issues. This book is intended for instructors and students of Engineering, Materials Science and Industrial/Product Design, as well as for materials engineers and product designers who need to consider the environmental implications of materials in their designs.
