Materials Science and Engineering 9e : SI Version

Building on the extraordinary success of eight best-selling editions, Callister’s new ninth edition of Materials Science and Engineering continues to promote student understanding of the three primary types of materials (metals, ceramics, and polymers) and composites, as well as the relationships that exist between the structural elements of materials and their properties.
This new edition has an increased emphasis in active learning and includes more coverage of Nano-, Bio-, Smart, and other Modern Materials. It incorporates new, up-to-date solved examples and practice problems that reflect current technologies, current materials, and real word scenarios. In addition, the Virtual Materials Science and Engineering Lab (VMSE) has been updated and Camtasia videos have been added.

Features:
•  The text clearly and concisely conveys the concepts at an appropriate level to ensure student understanding.
•  It maintains its extensive, introductory level coverage of mechanical properties and failure – the most important materials considerations for many engineers.
•  Students are presented with the latest developments in Material Science and Engineering.
•  “Materials of Importance” discuss high interest applications of materials and relate them to topics in the book.
•  “Concept Check” questions quiz students on their understanding of key ideas in the chapter.
