Process techniques for engineering high-performance materials / Tim Oberle - Boca Raton : CRC Press, [2014] - xxxi, 461 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index
1. The process, the product, and its ultimate life span -- 2. Fitness-for-use testing -- 3. Technical creativity and idea generation -- 4. Finding product opportunity -- 5. Prioritizing project proposals -- 6. Evaluating critical parameters in the process -- 7. Organizing development projects -- 8. Project execution and oversight -- 9. Small-scale trials -- 10. Development trials on large-scale equipment -- 11. Managing and controlling the process -- 12. Controlling raw materials -- 13. Complex manufacturing situations -- 14. Human factors -- 15. Managing customer expectations -- 16. Proprietary systems
"This book is directed toward those who conduct product development in the materials industry and engineers who convert materials into fabricated products. Real world case studies give the book a narrative, hands-on feel that appeals to readers in industry. This approach steers clear of the theory and abstraction that characterize academic works. It documents the practical mechanics of development activities to bring new and modified materials to market. It covers the methodologies for plant scale trials and field testing at customer operations"--
