دانلود کتاب Computer-Aided Materials Selection During Structural Design

The selection of the proper materials for a structural component is a critical activity that is governed by many, often conflicting, factors. Incorporating materials expert systems into CAD/CAM operations could assist designers by suggesting potential manufacturing processes for particular products to facilitate concurrent engineering, recommending various materials for a specific part based on a given set of characteristics, or proposing possible modifications of a design if suitable materials for a particular part do not exist. Computer-Aided Materials Selection during Structural Design reviews the structural design process, determines the elements and capabilities required for a materials selection expert system to assist design engineers, and recommends the areas of expert system and materials modeling research and development required to devise a materials-specific design system.
