Synopsis

This illustrated dictionary provides a comprehensive coverage of terms currently used in mechanical and manufacturing engineering. Since the publication of the previous edition some ten years ago, many new terms have been added to the working engineer's vocabulary, including particularly those relating to the application of information technology, micromachining, nanotechnology and composite materials. The Dictionary of Mechanical Engineering is primarily intended for professional and student engineers. It will also be a valuable addition to the bookshelves of technical writers and journalists as well as those working in advertising, sales and marketing within an engineering environment. The definitions, whilst being technically accurate, are sufficiently straightforward, clear and concise to be understandable by the layman. Every library should have a copy. The dictionary is extensively cross-referenced for ease of use, and contains over 4,500 new terms.
