"Which do you choose first, a material or a process? Whichever way you do it, your choices directly impact the design, cost, and performance in service of a new or redesigned product. The decision-making process involves vastly different activities that, regardless of their differences, cannot be performed in isolation. Illuminating the holistic decision-making approach of concurrent engineering, Materials and Process Selection for Engineering Design, Second Edition illustrates how the activities of design, materials, and process selection, and economic and environmental analysis fit together and the tradeoffs that can be made when developing a new product or changing an existing model. The second edition adds or revises topics such as environmental, function, and aesthetics consideration in design; environmental impact assessment of materials and processes; life cycle and recycling economics; and materials substitution."--BOOK JACKET.
