Las innovaciones tecnológicas a menudo son consecuencia del uso inteligente de nuevos materiales, pero también muchos desastres en ingeniería están causados por un mal uso de los mismos. Por ello es vital que el ingeniero profesional conozca cómo se seleccionan los materiales y sepa cuáles se ajustan a las demandas de un diseño en particular; es decir, demandas económicas, estéticas, de resistencia y de durabilidad. El ingeniero debe comprender las propiedades de los materiales y sus limitaciones, y esta obra resulta una guía útil. Este libro es adecuado para un curso de Materiales de Ingeniería impartido a estudiantes sin conocimientos previos en la materia. Está pensado para enlazar con las enseñanzas de diseño, mecánica y estructuras, y para satisfacer las necesidades de los estudiantes, enfatizando las aplicaciones de diseño. El texto es conciso, ofrece casos prácticos de aplicación y dispone de numerosos ejemplos al final de cada capítulo.
