Title: Reverse Engineering: Mechanisms, Structures, Systems & Materials
Author: Messler, Robert
Description:
A comprehensive look at reverse engineering as a legitimate learning, design, and troubleshooting tool
This unique book examines the often underappreciated and occasionally maligned technique of reverse engineering. More than a shortcut for the lazy or unimaginative to reproduce an artless copy of an existing creation, reverse engineering is an essential brick - if not a keystone - in the pathway to a society's technological advancement.
Written by an engineer who began teaching after years in industry, Reverse Engineering reviews this meticulous analytical process with a breadth and depth as never before. Find out how to:
- Learn by "mechanical dissection"
- Deduce the role, purpose, and functionality of a designed entity
- Identify materials-of-construction and methods-of-manufacture by observation alone
- Assess the suitability of a design to purpose from form and fit
Coverage includes:
- Methods of product teardown
- Failure analysis and forensic engineering
- Deducing or inferring role, purpose, and functionality during reverse engineering
- The Antikythera mechanism
- Identifying materials-of-construction
- Inferring methods-of-manufacture or -construction
- Construction of Khufu's pyramid
- Assessing design suitability
- Value and production engineering
- Reverse engineering of materials and substances
- Reverse engineering of broken, worn, or obsolete parts for remanufacture
- The law and the ethics of reverse engineering
