Features: This book is compiled based on the "Basic Requirements for Teaching of Engineering Materials and Manufacturing Technology" for undergraduate engineering programs issued by the Higher Education Department of the Ministry of Education (Notification No. [1995] 82). The content is concise and to the point. It focuses on introducing the fundamental knowledge of metallic materials and heat treatment, while also covering some commonly used metallic materials and new materials. Additionally, it presents the latest new processes and advancements in engineering materials. Finally, it combines industrial practice to introduce knowledge and methods related to material selection. The book is divided into ten chapters, with main content including: material properties, material structure and mechanical behavior, material forming, solidification, and binary alloy phase diagrams, iron-carbon alloys, metal heat treatment and surface treatment technologies, industrial steels, cast irons, non-ferrous metals and their alloys, non-metallic materials and other new materials, and material selection for mechanical parts. This book can serve as a textbook for technical foundation courses in mechanical and near-mechanical disciplines at universities, as well as a reference for engineering professionals.
