Machine Elements in Mechanical Design (Paperback)

Machine Elements in Mechanical Design, Paperback

This machine elements in mechanical design paperback, written by Robert Mott, is a mechanical engineering textbook from Pearson Education, released in 2017. It walks through the parts that make up machines and the design principles behind them. Students in mechanical design courses and working engineers are the readers it was written for.

This is the softcover printing, and it runs to 880 pages in English. The subject area is Technology and Engineering, with mechanical design as its specific focus.

What the book covers

Mott looks at the individual components found in mechanical systems and the principles a designer applies when choosing and sizing them. The book sits within the mechanical design branch of engineering study, so it fits courses where students move from theory into the design of real machine parts.

Why buy the paperback printing

The softcover version holds the same 880-page text in a lighter binding. Many students prefer it for carrying to lectures and lab sessions, and it is easier to keep open on a desk while working through design problems. If you want the sturdier binding for a reference shelf, we also list this title in another format.

Who should buy this copy

Mott wrote for two groups of readers: students of mechanical engineering and professionals who already work in the field. A student can follow it through design coursework, while a working engineer can return to it when thinking through the components and principles behind a machine. Both get the full 880 pages.
