Mechanical Behavior of Materials

Buy
Everything that surrounds us is matter. The origin of the word matter is mater (Latin) or matri (Sanskrit), for mother. In this sense, human beings anthropomorphized that which made them possible – that which gave them nourishment. Every scientific discipline concerns itself with matter. Of all matter surrounding us, a portion comprises materials. What are materials? They have been variously defined. One acceptable definition is ‘‘matter that human beings use and/or process.” Another definition is ‘‘all matter used to produce manufactured or consumer goods.” In this sense, a rock is not a material, intrinsically; however, if it is used in aggregate (concrete) by humans, it becomes a material. The same applies to all matter found on earth: a tree becomes a material when it is processed and used by people, and a skin becomes a material once it is removed from its host and shaped into an artifact.

A balanced mechanics-materials approach and coverage of the latest developments in biomaterials and electronic materials, the new edition of this popular text is the most thorough and modern book available for upper-level undergraduate courses on the mechanical behavior of materials. To ensure that the student gains a thorough understanding the authors present the fundamental mechanisms that operate at micro- and nano-meter level across a wide-range of materials, in a way that is mathematically simple and requires no extensive knowledge of materials. This integrated approach provides a conceptual presentation that shows how the microstructure of a material controls its mechanical behavior, and this is reinforced through extensive use of micrographs and illustrations. New worked examples and exercises help the student test their understanding. Further resources for this title, including lecture slides of select illustrations and solutions for exercises, are available online at www.cambridge.org/97800521866758.

Origamics: Mathematical Explorations Through Paper Folding
Origamics: Mathematical Explorations Through Paper Folding
The art of origami, or paper folding, is carried out using a square piece of paper to obtain attractive figures of animals, flowers or other familiar figures. It is easy to see that origami has links with geometry. Creases and edges represent lines, intersecting creases and edges make angles, while the intersections themselves represent points....
