Dictionary of materials and testing
Joan L. Tomsic, R. S. Hodder · Society of Automotive Engineers eBooks · 2000
Rapid advances in the sciences, and especially in the fields of materials and testing, have introduced hundreds of new concepts and the words that gave them currency. It was with a focus on these current concepts and technology that this extensive and scholarly revision was initiated. As part of the expanded coverage provided by this second edition, technical terms from potentially related fields have been included. These, of course, include computer-related language, computer hardware and software technology related to testing instrumentation, and others. The dictionary should prove useful to students, teachers, scientists, and engineers in research and industry.
