Structural Materials: Properties and Selection by José Antonio Pero-Sanz ElorzEnglish | PDF,EPUB | 2019 | 375 Pages | ISBN : 3030261603 | 41.56 MB
The book covers the most important materials (naturals, metals, ceramics, polymers and composites) to be used mainly as structural engineering materials. Their main applications based on the properties are described in the first chapters of the book: mechanical, physical and chemical. The second part of the book is dedicated to the conceptual design by properties for a certain structural application: stiffness, mechanical strength, toughness, fatigue resistance, creep, etc., taking into account the weight and the cost.
