7. Design formulas for plastics engineers [2004]
- Rao, Natti S.
- 2nd ed. / Natti S. Rao, Günter Schumacher. - Munich : Hanser ; Cincinnati : Hanser Gardner Publications [distributor], c2004.
- Description
- Book — ix, 167 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.
- Summary
-
Although designing machines and dies for plastics processing is routinely done with the help of computer modeling and design programs, the results don't always hold up in industrial application. Therefore, it is essential for the designer to have an understanding of the underlying mathematical concepts and their limitations when working with these programs and/or trying to improve their output.

- Description
- Book — x, 207 p. : ill. ; 23 cm.
- Summary
-
Whether working on product design or process optimization, engineers need a multitude of polymer property values. This book provides a quick reference on basic design data for resins, machines, parts, and processes, and shows how to apply these data to solve practical problems. Numerous examples are given to illustrate the appropriate applications of the data presented. Readers can carry out calculations using a handheld calculator.

14. Polymer processing fundamentals [1998]
- Osswald, Tim A.
- Munich : Hanser ; Cincinnati : Hanser/Gardner Publications, c1998.
- Description
- Book — xv, 229 p. : ill. ; 23 cm.
- Summary
-
Based on lecture notes from a five-week polymer processing laboratory course, this text provides background on polymer processing for engineering students and practicing engineers. The text is written at two levels: an introductory level for students and engineers unfamiliar with polymer processing, and a more advanced level for more in-depth material. The more advanced level is "shaded" to distinguish it from the introductory level. The book presents enough information so that, with their fluids and heat transfer background, engineers can understand and solve polymer processing problems.
