Machine Design With Cd by Wentzell details from flipkart

Electric motors and pneumatic and hydraulic drives are just a few of the topics examined by author Timothy Wentzell, a Professor of Mechanical Engineering Technology, in this straight forward introduction to machine design. A direct, logical approach strives to enhance basic understanding of the material by focusing on solving engineering design problems as opposed to working through extensive derivations. A broad collection of realistic examples and practical problems similar to those faced by working engineers encourages knowledge in the field of machine design. For this reason, the book is also usable by future and practicing engineers as a helpful reference.

Key Features

• cumulative problems at the end of most chapters offer insight into many of the steps in the design of complex machines
• Chapter 21 introduces the use of creativity in the design process as well as how patents and copyrights work, providing a real world approach that captures interest and fuels retention
• a functional list of typical formulas used in the book allows the instructor, if so desired, to offer closed-book tests while allowing use of the formula sheets to solve problems
• an Instructor's Manual provides the solutions to end of chapter problems and a sample test bank the CD-ROM includes PowerPoint presentations showing many of the example problems, associated sketches, and selected problem solutions for end-of-chapter material
