Full coverage of electronics, MEMS, and instrumentation and
control in mechanical engineering
This second volume of Mechanical Engineers’ Handbook
covers electronics, MEMS, and instrumentation and control, giving
you accessible and in-depth access to the topics you’ll encounter
in the discipline: computer-aided design, product design for
manufacturing and assembly, design optimization, total quality
management in mechanical system design, reliability in the
mechanical design process for sustainability, life-cycle design,
design for remanufacturing processes, signal processing, data
acquisition and display systems, and much more.
The book provides a quick guide to specialized areas you may
encounter in your work, giving you access to the basics of each and
pointing you toward trusted resources for further reading, if
needed. The accessible information inside offers discussions,
examples, and analyses of the topics covered, rather than the
straight data, formulas, and calculations you’ll find in other
handbooks.
* Presents the most comprehensive coverage of the entire
discipline of Mechanical Engineering anywhere in four interrelated
books
* Offers the option of being purchased as a four-book set or as
single books
* Comes in a subscription format through the Wiley Online Library
and in electronic and custom formats
Engineers at all levels will find Mechanical Engineers’
Handbook, Volume 2 an excellent resource they can turn to for
the basics of electronics, MEMS, and instrumentation and
control.
