Konstruktionselemente des Maschinenbaus 1

Construction elements of mechanical engineering form the basis for creative design in the product development process. They are fundamental to any mechanical engineering education. Learning and understanding machine and construction elements with manageable complexity enhances comprehension of the essential features of more complex technical structures. Only with an understanding of the physical, logical, and technical systematics of these structures can the prerequisites for designing and developing a product be established. The two textbooks and the accompanying exercise book cover the entire content of university-level construction elements education. The author team, composed of recognized specialists, ensures high expertise in the individual topics. This first volume includes the fundamentals of design, calculation and shaping, as well as the elements of springs, screws and connections, shafts, and shaft-hub connections. The 10th edition features a newly written Chapter 4 (Design of Technical Systems/Product Design), revisions in the introduction, and corrections and additions in the other chapters.
