Compr. Handbook Of Mechanical Engineering

In the field of Mechanical Engineering, there is a continuous demand for a concise and compact book, which can serve as a reference book for students preparing for degree and diploma as well as for practicing engineers. This book has been written to fulfill this demand; while preparing the material for this book, I have constantly kept in mind the latest requirements of the students of Indian Universities.
Whole subject has been spilt up into twelve main headings and each chapter concludes with few typical problems, which can be easily attempted with the theory provided in the book. Solved examples provided at the end of the book help in understanding the concepts more thoroughly. Available specialized books in market including objective type books may not cater to these demands. This book is thus an updated compendium of terms used in Mechanical Engineering discipline.
