One of the first books new engineers and technicians should read. This new third edition of the perennial best seller preserves the core of the previous editions, focusing on the metallurgical and materials evaluation for failure mode identification. Comprehensive information covering the basic principles and practices are clearly explained.
Explanations of recent technical advances and new analysis tools have been added:
- Fatigue striation counting, modeling, and crack rate prediction
- Failures caused by microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC)
- Failures in elevated temperature environments
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: A metallurgical consultant in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Donald J. Wulpi studied and analyzed failures of metal parts for more than 45 years. A graduate of Lehigh University, with a degree in metallurgical engineering, he spent most of his working life in several metallurgical laboratories of the International Harvester Co., now Navistar International Corporation. In retirement, Mr. Wulpi devoted himself to teaching the principles of failure analysis at the ASM International headquarters, in Materials Park, Ohio, and at various companies throughout the United States. He testified as an expert witness in product litigation cases for many years.
