Springer Handbook of Mechanical Engineering: Springer Handbooks

Editat de Karl-Heinrich Grote, Erik K. Antonsson
en Limba Engleză Mixed media product – 13 ian 2009
Mechanical Engineering is a professional engineering discipline that involves the application of principles of physics for analysis, design, manufacturing and maintenance of mechanical systems. It requires a solid understanding of key concepts including mechanics, kinematics, thermodynamics and energy. Mechanical engineers use these principles and others for example in the design and analysis of automobiles, aircrafts, heating and cooling systems, industrial equipment and machinery. In addition to these main areas, specialized fields are offered at universities to prepare future engineers for their position in industry, such as: mechatronics and robotics, transportation and logistics, fuel technology, automotive engineering, biomechanics, vibration, optics and others. Accordingly, the Springer Handbook of Mechanical Engineering devotes its contents to all areas of interest for the practicing engineer as well as for the student at various levels and educational institutions. Authors from all over the world have contributed with their expertise and support the globally working engineer in finding a solution for today’s mechanical engineering problems.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
"This handbook has been conveniently structured into three parts: A. Fundamentals, B. Applications, and C. Complementary Material. … this handbook a truly unique and indispensable information source, a ‘must-have’ for any engineer’s book shelf. The book is of particular help for materials engineers in showing the cross-links to all important key-topics of mechanical engineering." (Materialprüfung Materials Testing, Vol. 51 (3), 2009)
"This massive volume, edited by Grote … and Antonsson (Caltech), and including 92 contributors, is the most up-to-date and most representative of the state-of-the-art in many broad areas encompassed by the field of mechanical engineering. The book contains three parts … . The usefulness of this handbook is hampered by its skimpy index … it has many attributes that make it an important addition to the reference shelf of any library serving a mechanical engineering department. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduate through professional collections." (A. M. Strauss, Choice, Vol. 47 (1), September, 2009)
“This handbook on mechanical engineering provides details on … fundamental building blocks of mechanical engineering. … It is broken down into three parts. … Since quite a wide variety of topics is covered in this handbook, it will give students an idea of what is involved in a number of different areas of mechanical engineering and in some electrical engineering specialties. Those not specializing in mechanical engineering but needing to learn the basics as part of their job will also find it useful.” (John S. Shea, IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine, Vol. 26 (3), May/June, 2010)

Notă biografică

Professor K.-H. Grote
Dr. Karl-Heinrich Grote is Professor and Chair of the Department of Mechanical Engineering – Engineering Design at the Otto-von-Guericke University in Magdeburg, Germany.
He received his "Diplom in Engineering" (Masters of Science in Mechanical Engineering) in 1979 and his "Dr.-Ing." (Ph.D. in Engineering) in 1984, both from the Technical University in Berlin, Germany. From 1984 to 1986 his was Visiting Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the California State University, Long Beach, USA and returned to Germany to become the Technical Chief Manager for Engineering Design at the "Ingenieurgesellschaft für Auto und Verkehr, IAV" in Berlin. (Engineering Group for Automotive and Transportation, Berlin), and jointly from 1987 to 1990 the Chief Engineer at the Technical University, Berlin, Department of Mechanical Engineering. In 1990 he joined the Mechanical Engineering Department at the California State University, Long Beach, USA again where he stayed on as a Full tenured Professor. Since June 1995 he holds his current position in Magdeburg, where he was also Vice - President for Academic Affairs from 1989 to 2001. Since 1997 he also serves as Chair of the Scientific Advisory Board of the Experimental Factory in Magdeburg.
From October 2002 to September 2004 he took a leave to become Visiting Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the California Institute of Technology, (Caltech), Pasadena, USA in Prof. Antonsson´s Department. Since April 2005 Prof. Grote is the Dean of the College of Mechanical Engineering at the Otto-von-Guericke University, Magdeburg, Germany. The College has 19 Chairs/Departments.
In 1995 Dr. Grote became one of the two editors of the "DUBBEL- Taschenbuch für den Maschinenbau" (Handbook of Mechanical Engineering) – the standard Handbook for the German speaking Engineering community.

Dr. Grote is the 1993 recipient of the Ring of Honor (Young EngineersAward) from the German Professional Engineering Society (VDI) the 1993 "TRW Excellnece in Teaching Award". Professor Grote was Principal Advisor of many Master Thesis’ and 25 Dissertations on 12 of which as Co-Advisor and has over 150 publications and is co-author of the book "Pahl/Beitz:Engineering Design" and editor of many other books.
Professor E. Antonsson
Dr. Erik Antonsson is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, CA, U.S.A., where he organized the Engineering Design Research Laboratory and has conducted research and taught since 1984. He earned a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering with distinction from Cornell University in 1976, and a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1982.
