Multi-criteria Decision Analysis for Supporting the Selection of Engineering Materials in Product Design [recurso electrónico]. - Burlington : Elsevier Science, 2013. - 1 online resource (125 pages)

The Importance of Decision Support in Materials Selection -- Screening of Materials -- Multi-criteria Decision-Making for Materials Selection -- Multiattribute Decision-Making for Ranking of Candidate Materials -- Case Studies of Using Materials Ranking -- Future Developments.

It is a constant challenge for designers, even when educated in the fundamentals of materials and mechanical engineering, to make optimal selections of materials to satisfy complex design problems, when faced with the vast range of materials available. Current approaches to materials selection range from the use of intuition and experience to more formalized methods. The latter is available in computer-based form, and includes electronic databases with search engines to facilitate the materials selection process.
