Engineering Dimensions, Units, and Conversions delves into the analysis and application of the dimensions, units, and unit conversions in engineering practical use. It demonstrates the importance of dimensional homogeneity and unit consistency.
Offering a comprehensive exploration of both primary and secondary units, the book presents detailed portrayals of various unit systems in both the English system and the SI system. It provides insight into conversion factor and ratio and dimensional analysis for dimensionless numbers. The book also examines dimensioning on drawings, including dimensioning basics and examples of object dimensioning and system dimensioning in drawings.
The book is a valuable reference for practicing engineers and researchers engaged in engineering research and development. It will also be of interest to undergraduate and graduate students in all major engineering disciplines.
