Knovel, a web-based application integrating technical information with analytical and search tools, has announced that it has incorporated real-world problem sets into the 6th edition of the textbook, The Science and Engineering of Materials, by Askeland, Fulay and Wright.
Working closely with publisher Cengage Learning, Knovel has added value to the core text by presenting a unique set of problems and solutions in each chapter. Based upon the topic of each chapter, students can search Knovel's engineering content and use the search optimisation features and data analysis tools to answer a range of questions.
Currently, more than 300 universities, including 12 of the top 15 engineering schools in the US, subscribe to Knovel. Students and instructors at non-subscribing schools will have trial access to select Knovel content for a semester in order to complete problems highlighted in the text.
