VIBRATIONS BY BALAKUMAR BALACHANDRAN :  FREE DOWNLOAD OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING BOOKS 

Balakumar Balachandran
Featuring outstanding coverage of linear and non-linear single degree-of-freedom and multi-degree-of-freedom systems, this book teaches the use of vibration principles in a broad spectrum of applications. In this introduction for undergraduate students, authors Balakumar Balachandran and Edward B. Magrab present vibration principles in a general context and illustrate the use of these principles through carefully chosen examples from different disciplines. Their balanced approach integrates principles of linear and nonlinear vibrations with modeling, analysis, prediction, and measurement so that physical understanding of the vibratory phenomena and their relevance for engineering design can be emphasized. The authors also provide design guidelines that are applicable to a wide range of vibratory systems. MATLAB is thoroughly integrated throughout the text.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF BEARINGS BY RAKESH SEHGAL : FREE DOWNLOAD OF ENGINEERING EBOOKS, FREE DOWNLOAD OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING BOOKS

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF BEARINGS BY  RAKESH SEHGAL :FREE DOWNLOAD OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING BOOKS

Rakesh Sehgal

This book is a compilation of different aspects contributing towards the performance evaluation of plain bearings (both journal and thrust), rolling element bearings and magnetic bearings.

 Bearings (both plain and rolling element) are used as important supporting elements for locating rotating components and confining their motion in desired direction. In order to ensure their operational reliability and desired life, these need to be properly designed/selected for an application more so because of ever increasing operational speeds. This requires the careful performance evaluation of different types of bearings considering aspects such as thermal stability, lubrication, contaminants in lubricants and controlling mechanism etc.

MECHANICAL ALLOYING AND MILLING BY CURY SURYANARAYANA : FREE DOWNLOAD OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING BOOKS

Cury Suryanarayana
This book surveys the broad field of mechanical alloying from a scientific and technological perspective to form a timely and comprehensive resource valuable to both students and researchers. The treatment progresses from the historical background through a description of the process, the different metastable effects produced, and the mechanisms of phase formation to applications of mechanically alloyed products. The presentation is straightforward and easy to understand but does not compromise the scientific accuracy. It includes an unusually extensive listing of the results of different metastable effects obtained in various alloy systems along with thorough references in each chapter.

OPTIMIZATION OF STRUCTURAL AND MECHANICAL SYSTEMS BY JASBIR S. ARORA :  FREE DOWNLOAD OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING BOOKS

Jasbir S. Arora 
Computational optimization methods have matured over the last few years due to extensive research by applied mathematicians and engineers. These methods have been applied to many practical applications. Several general-purpose optimization programs and programs for specific engineering applications have become available to solve particular optimization problems. Written by leading researchers in the field of optimization, this highly readable book covers state-of-the-art computational algorithms as well as applications of optimization to structural and mechanical systems. Formulations of the problems and numerical solutions are presented, and topics requiring further research are also suggested.

CRITICAL COMPONENT WEAR IN HEAVY DUTY ENGINES BY P.A. LAKSHMINARAYANAN : FREE DOWNLOAD OF ENGINEERING EBOOKS, FREE DOWNLOAD OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING BOOKS

CRITICAL COMPONENT WEAR IN HEAVY DUTY ENGINES BY  P.A. LAKSHMINARAYANAN :  FREE DOWNLOAD OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING BOOKS

P. A. Lakshminarayanan

The critical parts of a heavy duty engine are theoretically designed for infinite life without mechanical fatigue failure. Yet the life of an engine is in reality determined by wear of the critical parts. Even if an engine is designed and built to have normal wear life, abnormal wear takes place either due to special working conditions or increased loading.  Understanding abnormal and normal wear enables the engineer to control the external conditions leading to premature wear, or to design the critical parts that have longer wear life and hence lower costs. The literature on wear phenomenon related to engines is scattered in numerous periodicals and books. For the first time, Lakshminarayanan and Nayak bring the tribological aspects of different critical engine components together in one volume, covering key components like the liner, piston, rings, valve, valve train and bearings, with methods to identify and quantify wear.
 * The first book to combine solutions to critical component wear in one volume
 * Presents real world case studies with suitable mathematical models for earth movers, power generators, and sea going vessels
 * Includes material from researchers at Schaeffer Manufacturing (USA), Tekniker (Spain), Fuchs (Germany), BAM (Germany), Kirloskar Oil Engines Ltd (India) and Tarabusi (Spain)
 * Wear simulations and calculations included in the appendices
 * Instructor presentations slides with book figures available from the companion site

Critical Component Wear in Heavy Duty Engines is aimed at postgraduates in automotive engineering, engine design, tribology, combustion and practitioners involved in engine R&D for applications such as commercial vehicles, cars, stationary engines (for generators, pumps, etc.), boats and ships. This book is also a key reference for senior undergraduates looking to move onto advanced study in the above topics, consultants and product mangers in industry, as well as engineers involved in design of furnaces, gas turbines, and rocket combustion.
