A propos de l'auteur
Keith. L. Richards is a retired mechanical engineer having worked in the industry for over 55 years. Having served an indentured apprenticeship with B.S.A. Tools that manufactured a wide range of machine tools including the Acme Gridley a multi-spindle automatic lathe built under licence and single spindle automatic lathes; these were built in Britain and widely exported all around the world.
On leaving the B.S.A. he served as a freelance engineering designer in a wide range of industries, including aluminium rolling mill design, industrial fork lift trucks and was a lead engineer for the mooring system for the Hutton tension leg platform. In latter years he became more involved stress analysis that led to working in the aerospace industry covering landing gear and environmental control systems for both military and commercial aircraft and trailing wing components for the Airbus A380.
Résumé
Created to support senior-level engineering courses/modules, K. L. Richard's ENGINEERING DESIGN PRIMER reflects his long-time experience in engineering design. The text treats the major design processes within the boader context of creative, team-based product design, making this the ideal resource for project-based capstone design courses.
