Shigley’s Mechanical Engineering Design

Shigley's Mechanical Engineering Design, authored by Richard Budynas and Keith Nisbett, is a widely-used textbook in mechanical engineering. With a focus on design principles and their applications, the book provides students with a comprehensive understanding of the design process for mechanical components and systems. The latest edition of the book, available on Amazon, is the 11th edition, published by McGraw Hill Education.


Richard G. Budynas, a professor of mechanical engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology, is a renowned author and expert in mechanical engineering design. He has authored several books, including Advanced Strength and Applied Stress Analysis and Applied Mechanics of Materials. Keith J. Nisbett, who co-authored the book, is also a professor of mechanical engineering at RIT and has expertise in the areas of machine design, vibrations, and computer-aided design.


The book starts with an introduction to the fundamental principles of mechanical engineering design, including statics, dynamics, materials, and manufacturing. It then moves on to cover various topics related to design, such as stress and deformation analysis, fatigue failure, surface failure modes, and the selection of materials for specific applications. The book also includes chapters on mechanical power transmission, bearings, and gears, which are essential components in many mechanical systems.


Throughout the book, the authors have included numerous real-world examples, case studies, and design projects to help students understand the practical applications of the concepts discussed. The book also includes a comprehensive set of design problems at the end of each chapter, which provides students with an opportunity to apply the concepts learned in the chapter and reinforce their understanding.


In summary, Shigley's Mechanical Engineering Design is a comprehensive and well-written textbook that provides students with a solid foundation in mechanical engineering design. It is an essential resource for mechanical engineering students, as well as practicing engineers who need to design and analyze mechanical components and systems.
