Material Science And Engineering
This textbook, authored by Dr. Swati
Gangwar and Mr. Kapil Kumar, comprehensively covers the very basics of
material science and engineering. Classifications of materials are taken up
as metals, polymers, composite materials, and biomaterials; their properties
and applications are described. Crystal structures are discussed in terms of
Bravais lattices, Miller indices, and atomic packing factor. Students will
also be introduced to X-ray crystallography and how it might be applied for
the determination of inner structure of the materials. Its clarity in
structure and rich detail make it extremely useful for courses ranging from
introductory to advanced in material science and engineering. Significant
emphasis throughout the text, quite markedly, on the importance of
understanding material properties and their relationship with structure
toward an effective design and application of an engineering material.
