GEOMETRY OF SURFACES. A PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR MECHANICAL ENGINEERS

Geometry of Surfaces: A Practical Guide for Mechanical Engineers is a comprehensive guide to applied geometry of surfaces with focus on practical applications in various areas of mechanical engineering. It is divided into three sections, covering Part Surfaces, Geometry of Contact of Part Surfaces and Mapping of the Contacting Part Surfaces. It focuses on the geometry of real part surfaces, and explores the difference between classical differential geometry of surfaces and engineering geometry of surfaces.Geometry of Surfaces: A Practical Guide for Mechanical Engineers combines differential geometry and gearing theory and presents new developments in the elementary theory of enveloping surfaces. Written by a leading expert in the field, this book also provides the reader with the tools for solving complex engineering problems in the field of mechanical engineering.
