• Student Lecture PowerPoint Slides. These slides (in both Adobe Acrobat PDF
®
®
and PowerPoint formats) are virtually identical to the lecture slides provided to
®
an instructor for use in the classroom. The student set has been designed to allow
for note taking on printouts.
• Index of Learning Styles. Upon answering a 44-item questionnaire, a user’s
learning-style preference (i.e., the manner in which information is assimilated and
processed) is assessed.

The Instructor Companion Site is available for instructors who have adopted this text.
Please visit the website to register for access. Resources that are available include the
following:
• All resources found on the Student Companion Site. (Except for the Student
®
Lecture PowerPoint Slides.)
• Instructor Solutions Manual. Detailed solutions for all end-of-chapter questions
and problems (in both Word and Adobe Acrobat PDF formats).
®
®
• Homework Problem Correlation Guide—8th edition to 9th edition. This guide
notes, for each homework problem or question (by number), whether it appeared
in the eighth edition and, if so, its number in this previous edition.
• Virtual Materials Science and Engineering (VMSE). This web-based software
package consists of interactive simulations and animations that enhance the
learning of key concepts in materials science and engineering. Included in VMSE
are eight modules and a materials properties/cost database. Titles of these modules
are as follows: (1) Metallic Crystal Structures and Crystallography; (2) Ceramic
Crystal Structures; (3) Repeat Unit and Polymer Structures; (4) Dislocations; (5)
Phase Diagrams; (6) Diffusion; (7) Tensile Tests; and (8) Solid-Solution
Strengthening.
• Image Gallery. Illustrations from the book. Instructors can use them in
assignments, tests, or other exercises they create for students.
• Art PowerPoint Slides. Book art loaded into PowerPoints, so instructors can more
easily use them to create their own PowerPoint Slides.
• Lecture Note PowerPoints. These slides, developed by the authors and Peter M.
Anderson (The Ohio State University), follow the flow of topics in the text, and
include materials taken from the text as well as other sources. Slides are available
®
®
in both Adobe Acrobat PDF and PowerPoint formats. [Note: If an instructor
doesn’t have available all fonts used by the developer, special characters may not
be displayed correctly in the PowerPoint version (i.e., it is not possible to embed
fonts in PowerPoints); however, in the PDF version, these characters will appear
correctly.]
• Solutions to Case Study Problems.
• Solutions to Problems in the Mechanical Engineering Web Module.
• Suggested Course Syllabi for the Various Engineering Disciplines. Instructors
may consult these syllabi for guidance in course/lecture organization and
planning.
• Experiments and Classroom Demonstrations. Instructions and outlines for
experiments and classroom demonstrations that portray phenomena and/or
illustrate principles that are discussed in the book; references are also provided
that give more detailed accounts of these demonstrations.
