Title: Mechanical Metallurgy by George Ellwood Dieter ISBN: 0-07-016893-8 Publisher: McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math Pub. Date: 01 April, 1986 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $97.18 |

Summary: The Bible of material science
Comment: This book covers the entire scope of mechanical behavior in a single volume! How Dieter accomplished his, I can't imagine. But he did.
He covers everything, from the fundamentals of strees and strain, through dislocation theory, basic deformation and fracture, and the whole scope of metal-forming operations. If you need it, it's in this book.
Two complaints:
1) There is relatively little coverage of computer modeling, FEM, etc. These are the future of engineering, and Dieter needs to get on the boat when (if) he writes a fourth edition.
2) The index is USELESS.
These two faults don't change the fact that this is one of he most important single books ever written in the field of material science.
Rating: 5
Summary: AN EXCELLENT BOOK!!!
Comment: This is one of the best text books I have ever read. Prof. Dieter has the exceptional ability to cover a wide range of topics in a clearly understandible, easy to read and perfectly comprehensible manner. Although the book is on mechanical behavior of metals, it can easily be used to learn the fundamental concepts of elasticity, plasticity, fracture mechanics and dislocation theory. These topics constitute the background to study the mechanical behavior of any material and Dieter's book teaches them in an elegant manner. Especially if you are a practicing metallurgist, this book will stay on your desk throughout your carreer and you'd refer to quite often. Although the price of the book is high, it is definitely worth spending your money on. It is a invaluable classic in the field of mechanical behavior of metals. I highly recommend it.
