Crane sheave -- early failures; Chapter 5. Crane sheave -- simple costing; Chapter 6. Casting machine -- basic design; Chapter 7. The Rainbow sculpture -- innovation in design; Chapter 8. The Inshallah condenser -- ISO 9000 application; Chapter 9. Screwed fasteners -- standardisation in design; Chapter 10. Fasteners and couplings -- better design.
Summary: A multidisciplinary introduction to engineering design using real-life case studies. Case Studies in Engineering Design provides students and practising engineers with many practical and accessible case studies which are representative of situations engineers face in professional life, and which incorporate a range of engineering disciplines. Different methodologies of approaching engineering design are identified and explained prior to their application in the case studies. The case studies have been chosen from real-life engineering design projects and aim to expose students to a wide variet.
