Analysis and Design of Machine Elements

Analysis and Design of Machine Elements, 1st Edition, is a design-centric textbook covering the concepts, principles, data, analytical procedures, and decision-making techniques necessary to develop safe, efficient, and workable mechanical components.

Organized into divisions on design and strength analysis fundamentals alongside design applications, the text emphasizes failure analysis and prevention-based design. It guides students through a consistent pedagogical approach moving from failure analysis to strength analysis and structural design, helping them translate written requirements into design concepts, models, and manufacturing drawings.

Integrating Chinese, European, and International standards and measurement units, the volume serves advanced undergraduate mechanical engineering students while providing a practical guide for engineers in product design, vehicle engineering, and power machinery.
