Mechanical Engineering Design

Mcgraw-Hill Series in Mechanical Engineering

by Jospeh E. Shigley

The text is intended for undergraduate courses in mechanical engineering design. It teaches students to apply the background they have developed in mathematics, physics, the thermal-fluid sciences, and computers to questions unique to engineering design. This edition features emphasis on reader involvement in programming; a unique arrangement of the material on gearing to provide maximum flexibility in scheduling topics; complete revisions of almost every chapter; completely new home problems, and an optional reliability method of design, both of which are used throughout the book; and additional emphasis on designing to achieve quality-control objectives.

Genres: Engineering, Textbooks, Science, Nonfiction, Education, Design, School

بهترین کتاب طراحی اجزایی که خوانده ام. قطعا کتابیه در سطح جهانی و عالی

[Navid · Rating 3 out of 5]

It is being used as a handbook in educating mechanical engineers but in its nature it is really not a handbook, it is a textbook. So there are a lot of details that are "in the way" when you want to use this book in engineering practice.

it actually has "mistakes",
then again design id is subjective, what is allowable for some guy isn't for another.
but over all the book is very good.
the british units were a bummer though.

A mechanical engineering book - what can you say? Actually, one of THE BEST fundamental M.E. books I've, and many other ME's have read (yes, we engineers do have social skills :)

Anyone interested in mechanical engineering design should read Mechanical Engineering Design by Joseph Edward Shigley and Richard G. Budynas. From the fundamentals of engineering materials and stress analysis to the design of mechanical components and systems, this book is a thorough reference that covers all facets of mechanical design.

This book's easy-to-understand writing style, which makes even difficult subjects understandable, is one of its strong points. Additionally, the writers clarify crucial ideas with a tonne of diagrams, examples, and pictures to make it simpler for readers to put what they have learned into practise.

The focus of this book is on useful design concerns, which is another outstanding aspect. In addition to outlining the theory underlying mechanical design, the authors offer helpful guidance on how to apply this theory to actual issues. This makes the book a priceless tool for both practising engineers and engineering students.

Overall, I heartily endorse Joseph Edward Shigley and Richard G. Budynas' Mechanical Engineering Design. It is a top-notch textbook that offers a thorough review of mechanical design and is written in a way that will keep readers interested.

Think of this book as your friendly book that won't die - it's one of the only few I keep referring to years late. Sorta like that wise friend who explains things without making your brain explode.

You know how some engineering texts feel like they're written by robots for other robots? Well, this one is refreshingly.... better. Clear, simple explanations that you can understand.

For mechanical engineers, this book and a design handbook are like Batman and Robin - you really need both. And here's the real kicker: when you're knee-deep in FE analyses (and questioning all your life choices), this book becomes your personal sanity checker. Those formulas are like a built-in BS detector.

Mind you - this isn't your one-size-fits-all engineering bible. You'll still need your solid mechanics texts, materials guides, and design handbooks... but this is usually my first go-to.

Excelente libro.

We used the *5th edition* (Shigley & Mischke) in our ME-Machine Design training at Clarkson University (~1991, Potsdam, New York). I still reference this hardcopy, supplementing w/ Internet ME-technology updates. Since hardcopy resides in my home-office's library shelf, I'll never be "finished" with this book, GoodReads! :)

I'm actually reading the much newer 8th edition of this book. It's very good.
