| Summary |
"This reference/text demonstrates the correct methodology to conduct successful failure analyses, as well as offering the background necessary for these investigations - covering procedures to reduce the occurrence of component failures due to errors in material selection, design, and manufacturing, as well as fatigue, stress, cracking, creep, and operating conditions." "Providing examples and useful recommendations, Practical Engineering Failure Analysis illustrates a wide variety of techniques to determine the cause and mode of failure and identify the weakest link in the design-fabrication-performance chain of a product...provides the tools necessary to evaluate, predict, and prevent component failure in a broad range of materials...contains a variety of case studies - arranged by industry - that showcases failures related to the processing of materials, manufacturing conditions, and noncompliance with operating instructions...and discusses faults due to shortcomings in design, casting, forging, welding, machining, and heat treatment."--BOOK JACKET.¹ |
