Practical Plant Failure Analysis a Guide to Understanding Machinery Deterioration and Improving Equipment Reliability

Providing a clear explanation of the major failure mechanisms and how to identify them, Practical Plant Failure Analysis describes mechanisms, wear, corrosion, overload, and fatigue. Showing how the failure mechanisms appear in components such as shafts, bearings, and gears, it examines many of the critical operating details in an accessible manner. It offers charts that illustrate how to identify specific failure. Additional coverage includes physical failure analysis, basic materials properties, differences between ductile and brittle overload failures, high and low cycle fatigue, lubricatio.
