This book is about mechanical design engineering, in particular design for mechanical system durability and performance density. It addresses diversified mechanical design issues that relate to several application areas, and provides potential solutions.Design for Durability and Performance Density includes four real-world case studies which help to identify the root cause of problems and failure cases encountered in industry and in the oil field. It suggests remedies for ...

This book explores the design of mechanical subsystems, with particular emphasis on the dynamibility they impart to the overall systems they become part of. Dynamibility is defined here as an attribute of a physical system - its capacity for good dynamic performance.At several places throughout the book innovative designs are presented that address previously obscure or stubborn design challenges, each tailored to meet specific functional requirements. These desig...
