Les normes de la construction métallique prescrits, à l'échelon européen, par les Eurocodes (Afnor), sont, dans ce manuel d'initiation, mises à la portée des étudiants des premiers cycles universitaires de l'enseignement technique et professionnel (BTS, DUT, Licences pro, etc.). 

Ce nouveau manuel explique comment appliquer les nouvelles règles de construction européennes et plus particulièrement celles de l'Eurocode 3 (calcul des structures en acier). Il est le fruit du travail de 20 enseignants exerçant en BTS, IUT et écoles d'ingénieurs qui se sont attachés à décoder et à expliquer le calcul des structures métalliques selon l'Eurocode 3. 

Fundamentals of Machine Elements, Third Edition offers an in-depth understanding of both the theory and application of machine elements. Design synthesis is carefully balanced with design analysis, an approach developed through the use of case studies, worked examples, and chapter problems that address all levels of learning taxonomies. Machine design is also linked to manufacturing processes, an element missing in many textbooks.

Achieve any cost goals in half the time and achieve stable production with quality designed in right-the-first-time.

Design for Manufacturability: How to Use Concurrent Engineering to Rapidly Develop Low-Cost, High-Quality Products for Lean Production is still the definitive work on DFM. This second edition extends the proven methodology to the most advanced product development process with the addition of the following new, unique, and original topics, which have never been addressed previously.

These topics show you how to:

Are you a metal work enthusiast, want to start a hobby/career around it, occupy your free time, make some bucks out of it and metal casting is your method of choice but you do not know how to go about it without making costly mistakes?

And are you looking for an easy to follow, step-by-step guide that will show you how to get started in metal casting?

If you’ve answered YES,

Describes the sand foundry, the characteristics of molding sand, the types of mold and pattern making equipment, and the various sand casting procedures for forming metals.

The flow of molten metal in the mould and subsequent solidification affect casting quality. In casting domain, software applications are still nascent and expensive, limiting their penetration to mainly large foundries. 

This book presents the scientific approach to casting development supported by computer modelling. It describes the influence of parameters related to cast product, tooling, and process on manufacturability, especially casting quality.

This book is intended for the students of engineering and information technology.

An introduction to small-scale non-ferrous casting. Includes step-by-step instructions on how to make equipment using local materials; and provides information on moulding techniques, pattern making, core making, the use of wax and metal preparation.
