Synopsis:

The 80th Anniversary Edition of the Classic Mechanical Engineering Handbook is now in a larger format with nearly 1800 pages and more than 2300 illustrations. The 10th Edition of "Marks" is bigger and better than ever—providing quick access to more than 100 vital topics relating to modern mechanical engineering principles, standards, and practices! Fully updated to reflect current industry standards and practices, this edition of the classic handbook known simply as "Marks" offers fast, easy access to a wealth of practical information and data on more than 100 essential mechanical engineering topics — from the mechanics of solids and fluids to machine elements, from electrical and electronics engineering to environmental control, and from industrial engineering to instruments and controls. The Tenth Edition features contributions from 125 top experts and includes all-new and rewritten material on gearing, autofacing, HVAC, displacement pumps, vibration, computers, robotics, iron and steel, nonmetallic materials, stainless steels, composites, fluid film bearings, industrial plants, and more. Complete with state-of-the-art techniques and methods, plus thousands of illustrations, tables, charts, and formulas, this new edition remains the ultimate authority on every aspect of modern mechanical engineering.

Booknews Annotation:

The widely used reference first published in 1916 and most recently in 1987 here contains new and rewritten entries on gearing, autofacturing, HVAC, displacement pumps, vibration, computers, robotics, optics, ferrous and nonferrous materials, composites, fluid film bearings, gas turbines, incineration, industrial plants, and patents and trademarks. Arranged in such sections as mathematics, heat, strength of materials, machine elements, building construction and equipment, and power generation. The index is very detailed. Includes many diagrams, drawings, graphs, and charts, but on bibliography. Cited in BCL 3. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
