Machine Design, 5e: An Integrated Approach

Written for junior-level mechanical engineering courses, Machine Design emphasizes failure theory and analysis, as well as the synthesis and design aspects of machine elements. The book points out the commonality of the analytical approaches needed to design a wide variety of elements, and it emphasizes the use of computer-aided engineering as an approach to the design and analysis of these classes of problems. Topics include problem formulation and calculation, preliminary design stage, and estimation and first-order analysis.

In addition, a supplemental set of MATLAB code files is available for download.
