Reseña del editor

For upper-level undergraduate and graduate level engineering courses in Mechanical Behavior of Materials. Predicting the mechanical behavior of materials Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 5th Edition introduces the spectrum of mechanical behavior of materials and covers the topics of deformation, fracture, and fatigue. The text emphasizes practical engineering methods for testing structural materials to obtain their properties, predicting their strength and life, and avoiding structural failure when used for machines, vehicles, and structures. With its logical treatment and ready-to-use format, the text is ideal for upper-level undergraduate students who have completed an elementary mechanics of materials course. The 5th Edition features many improvements and updates throughout including new or revised problems and questions, and a new chapter on Environmentally Assisted Cracking.

Norman E. Dowling earned his B.S. in civil engineering (structures) from Clemson University in Clemson, S.C., and his M.S. and Ph.D. in theoretical and applied mechanics from the University of Illinois in Urbana. He is a registered Professional Engineer. From 1972 to 1982, he was employed at Westinghouse Research Laboratories, Pittsburgh, PA. Since 1983, he has been at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. In 2015, Prof. Dowling retired from full employment and remains professionally active as Professor Emeritus. An ASTM International member since 1972, Dowling has served on a number of subcommittees and other activities of Committee E08 on Fatigue and Fracture. He has also been active in the Fatigue Design and Evaluation Committee of SAE International. Stephen L. Kampe received B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Metallurgical Engineering from Michigan Technological University. He has held positions with Martin Marietta Corporation, and with Virginia Tech on the Materials Science and Engineering faculty. In 2008, he returned to Michigan Tech and is currently the St. John Professor and Chair of the Materials Science and Engineering Department. He is a member of TMS and ASEE, and a Fellow of ASM and Alpha Sigma Mu. Milo V. Kral earned his B.E. in mechanical engineering, and his M.S. and Ph.D. in Materials Science & Engineering from Vanderbilt University. After an ASEE post-doctoral fellowship in 1996-1998 at the US Naval Research Laboratory in Washington DC, Kral joined the engineering faculty at University of Canterbury in Christchurch New Zealand. He is a member of TMS, ASM, a fellow of Professional Engineers NZ and Alpha Sigma Mu.
