Shigley's Mechanical Engineering Design

There are many general Engineering Handbooks; Marks' is the best. This is slightly different. I've never found any other book that quite fills the niche Shigley did in the various editions of his work which led to this. it covers most of the technical material you need to actually do good mechanical engineering design. Gears, mechanism, strength of design, etc. There are better books on each individual subject, but no others I've seen that bring it all together into useful processes. This bulks out Shigley's earlier work with new and in some cases more detailed material. Worthy of a place on any Designer's desk.

Non è la versione che avevo ordinato! Ho atteso a lungo per la consegna dell'ordine perché volevo quella edizione, ma invano. Il contenuto è simile, ma le pagine sono in bianco e nero (e non a colori come nell'edizione ordinata!), come se si trattasse di un libro fotocopiato e rilegato. Non mi metto a restituirlo però non si fa così....

If you have ever heard the words "mechanical engineering", you should probably buy this book. It will take you on a wil journey from understanding the basics of the design process, all the way to how to design rotating equipment. It covers pretty much everything mechanical design related, in a simple-to-understand way. If your professors are as lazy as mine, they'll take exams questions right from the in-text examples. Seriously. That has happened.

Uno de los clasicos libros de diseno en ingenieria mecanica, es el Shigley!! 10 de 10

The bible of mechanical engineering. This book covers a huge range of topics which will be useful to everyone from mechanical engineering students to engineering professionals. It doesn't have as many examples as some other engineering design books, but it makes up for this in its quality of content. A few of the mechanical engineers that I work with carry this book on their shelves to use as reference. Would recommend to anyone who wants a great reference.
