| Publisher Description: Skakoon sets out ideas he has learned in 20 years as a mechanical design engineer, speculating that most of them are practiced, if not consciously articulated, by any engineer who has worked in the field long enough. Focusing on the detail level but also examining high- level principles that apply to all mechanical design, he describes practices that improve the strength, robustness, function, user handing, and manufacturability of parts and assemblies. He also offers guidelines for selecting plastic, rubber, and metal materials. |
