The Mechanical Design Process

by David G. Ullman

This book focuses on the process of mechanical design. It defines terms basic to studying the design process, and discusses human interface with mechanical products. Techniques are presented to aid in: problem understanding (Quality Function Development), planning, concept generation (function decomposition, morphologies), concept evaluation (technology assessment, Pugh's method), product generation (concurrent design), and product evaluation (robust design, design for assembly, design for reliability, cost estimations).

THIS BOOK is absolutely amazing... every single part of it was useful for me (as a student ) perfectly explained every aspect of mechanical design! (from design for quality, cost to assembly and manufacture!+ how to evaluate them!)
surely it is a book to be read multiple times and with gaining experience in work, it becomes much more useful :)
