Mechanical Reliability
By A. D. S. Carter.
Description
Focusing on aspects of reliability engineering unique to mechanical engineering, this thoroughly revised Second Edition provides a practical approach to the subject. The treatment of random failures has been extended to include loading roughness, leading to an appraisal of 'intrinsic reliability' and similar concepts. Coverage of wear-out failures--which constitute the vast majority of mechanical failures--has been greatly expanded, including a detailed study of fatigue. Updated material on development, including reliability growth evaluation techniques, and expanded discussions o...
