Full coverage of manufacturing and management in mechanical
engineering

Mechanical Engineers' Handbook, Fourth Edition provides a
quick guide to specialized areas that engineers may encounter in
their work, providing access to the basics of each and pointing
toward trusted resources for further reading, if needed. The book's
accessible information offers discussions, examples, and analyses
of the topics covered, rather than the straight data, formulas, and
calculations found in other handbooks. No single engineer can be a
specialist in all areas that they are called upon to work in. It's
a discipline that covers a broad range of topics that are used as
the building blocks for specialized areas, including aerospace,
chemical, materials, nuclear, electrical, and general
engineering.

This third volume of Mechanical Engineers' Handbook
covers Manufacturing & Management, and provides accessible and
in-depth access to the topics encountered regularly in the
discipline: environmentally benign manufacturing, production
planning, production processes and equipment, manufacturing systems
evaluation, coatings and surface engineering, physical vapor
deposition, mechanical fasteners, seal technology, statistical
quality control, nondestructive inspection, intelligent control of
material handling systems, and much more.

* Presents the most comprehensive coverage of the entire
discipline of Mechanical Engineering

* Focuses on the explanation and analysis of the concepts
presented as opposed to a straight listing of formulas and data
found in other handbooks

* Offers the option of being purchased as a four-book set or as
single books

* Comes in a subscription format through the Wiley Online Library
and in electronic and other custom formats

Engineers at all levels of industry, government, or private
consulting practice will find Mechanical Engineers' Handbook,
Volume 3 an "off-the-shelf" reference they'll turn to again and
again.
