Engineering with Rubber - How to Design Rubber Components, 2nd Edition
2001, 365 Pages, 152 Figures, 42 Tables, Hardcover
$109.95

This new and revised second edition of Engineering with Rubber teaches the beginning engineer the principles of rubber science and technology-what rubber is, how it behaves, and how to design simple engineering components. This book deals with some basic principles on which successful use of rubber depends:

· How is an elastomer chosen and a formulation developed?
· Why is rubber highly elastic and relatively strong?
· How can one estimate the stiffness, strength, and durability of rubber products?

Review problems appear at the end of most chapters, along with the answers to these problems, making this book perfect for those new to the field, and senior undergraduate or beginning graduate courses in materials science and engineering.
