Materials Selection in Mechanical Design, Third Edition
By Michael Ashby
Book Description:
Understanding materials, their properties and behavior is fundamental to engineering design, and a key application of materials science. Written for all students of engineering, materials science and design, this book describes the procedures for material selection in mechanical design in order to ensure that the most suitable materials for a given application are identified from the full range of materials and section shapes available.
Fully revised and expanded for this third edition, Materials Selection in Mechanical Design is recognized as one of the leading texts, and provides a unique and genuinely innovative resource.
Features new to this edition
New chapters on topics including process selection, material and shape selection, design of hybrid materials, environmental factors and industrial design.
Online tutor resources -- fully worked Instructor's Manual, full color materials selection charts, image bank for lecture presentations.
Reader-friendly approach and attractive, easy to use two-color presentation.
The methods developed in the book are implemented in Granta Design's widely used CES Educational software.
Materials are introduced through their properties; materials selection charts (now available on line) capture the important features of all materials, allowing rapid retrieval of information and application of selection techniques. Merit indices, combined with charts, allow optimization of the materials selection process. Sources of material property data are reviewed and approaches to their use are given. Material processing and its influence on the design are discussed. New chapters on environmental issues, industrial engineering and materials design are included, as are new worked examples, exercise materials and a separate, online Instructor's Manual. New case studies have been developed to further illustrate procedures and to add to the practical implementation of the text.
*The new edition of the leading materials selection text
*Expanded and fully revised throughout, with new material on key emerging topics, an even more student-friendly approach, and attractive, easy to use two-color presentation
*Improved tutor resources, plus supporting online materials and Instructor's Manual

5 Stars.
Material Selection in Mechanical Design, by Michael Ashby, is a fantastic book on materials and material selection. I would recommend this book to anybody studying or practicing engineering or material science. The insight provided is invaluable.
The text presents a rational, systematic process for selecting materials in new designs or newly modified designs. With this approach, gone are the days of almost randomly selecting a handfull of materials to study based on personal experience (which is woefully limited in all cases) or what materials might "feel" right. This selection process brings us access to a broader range of materials for consideration as well as a previously unseen level of objectivity in our final selection.
This book is well organized and well written, with theory, data tables/charts, and case studies all bundled into one. The presentation is student friendly and the structure/layout is reference friendly.
Also recommended are Michael Ashby's other material science books:
- Engineering Materials 1: An Introduction to Properties, Applications and Design (with DRH Jones)
- Engineering Materials 2: An Introduction to Microstructures, Processing and Design (with DRH Jones)
Summary: A must have for any Design Engineer
Rating: 4
Very good diagrams to help you select the correct material for your design based on varying criteria. Guides you step by step through the process of design driven material selection.
I just wish it was available in a hard cover edition.

It is a very good one. I would recommend to buy if you could afford the price.
Summary: Great information -- several typos, however
Rating: 4
The graphs and data provide a lot of good information but the book has several typos in key areas which lead to many hours of frustration. Also, I wish the book was offered in hardcover. I appreciate the desire to keep the costs low for the students, but a book like this will be life long resource for working engineers and I don't feel that the book will hold up well over the years with a soft cover.
Summary: Invaluable!
Rating: 5
As a student in Materials Science and Engineering, this book has again and again been a priceless resource. It contains data and references which are clearly presented and precisely commented, and I often catch myself looking up the graphs or the appendices to find the solution to a particular problem. The Case Studies are very instructive and sometimes even amusing to read; they always reinforce a point previously made and give the reader a sense of history for the object in question (telephone, hair dryer, etc.). But the book doesn't stop at purely functional design; it also covers aesthetic aspects with the motto: "Good design works; excellent design also gives pleasure." This is a pleasing book.
