Materials Selection and Processing

Synopsis: This resource provides a freestanding knowledge base on materials. Based around material properties the working properties and behaviour of a wide range of materials are illustrated using material selection charts. Over 40 processes are detailed allowing the user to review materials applications, processes, design issues for woods, metals, plastics, ceramics and composites. Detailed information on how properties are tested is also included in screenshots and animations. Animations of over 30 processes are included providing demonstrations of complex and inaccessible processes. The CD features tutorials and a case study with an accompanying ''Charts in action’' booklet and a teacher support booklet.
