For courses in Engineering Design. Engineering By Design introduces students to a broad range of important design topics. The engineering design process provides the skeletal structure for the text, around which is wrapped numerous cases that illustrate both successes and failures in engineering design. The text provides a balance of qualitative presentation of engineering practices that can be understood by students with little technical knowledge and a more quantitative approach in which substantive analytical techniques are used to develop and evaluate proposed engineering solutions. This flexibility means that the text can be used in a wide variety of courses.
Engineering Design. Needs Assessment. Structuring the Search for the Problem. Structuring the Search for a Solution: Design Goals and Specifications. Acquiring, Applying, and Protecting Technical Knowledge. Abstraction and Modeling. Synthesis. Hazards Analysis and Failure Analysis.
