Steven R. Schmid received his B.S. in mechanical engineering from the Illinois Institute of Technology in 1986. He earned his master’s degree from Northwestern University in 1989 and his Ph.D. in 1993, both in mechanical engineering. In 1993 he joined the faculty at the University of Notre Dame, where he is a professor of aerospace and mechanical engineering, teaching and conducting research in design and manufacturing. Dr. Schmid holds professional engineering (P.E.) and certified manufacturing engineer (C.Mfg.E.) licenses. He was awarded the ASME Foundation Swanson Fellowship in 2012, and is a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Bernard J. Hamrock joined the staff of Ohio State University as a professor of mechanical engineering in 1985 and is now professor emeritus. Before joining Ohio State University he spent 18 years as a research consultant in the Tribology Branch of the NASA Lewis Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio. He received his Ph.D. and doctor of engineering degrees from the University of Leeds, England. His research has resulted in a book, three separate chapters for handbooks, and over 150 archival publications. He has received several awards including the 2000 Mayo D. Hersey Award from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Bo O. Jacobson received his Ph.D. and D.Sc. degrees from Lund University in Sweden. From 1973 until 1987 he was professor of machine elements at Luleå University of Technology in Sweden. In 1987 he joined SKF Engineering & Research Centre in the Netherlands, while retaining a professorship at Chalmers University from 1987 to 1991 and at Luleå University of Technology from 1992 to 1997. In 1997 he was appointed professor of machine elements at Lund University, Sweden. He has published four compendia used at Swedish universities, and has contributed more than 100 archival publications. His awards include the Tribology Gold Medal received in 1997.
"""Design is essential in the modern economy, and this book does a superb job in explaining both design analysis and design synthesis. Schmid, Hamrock and Jacobson are well-known experts in the field, and it shows from this concise and well-written book."" Prof. Bharat Bhushan, Ohio Eminent Scholar and The Howard D. Winbigler Professor, Director, Nanoprobe Laboratory for Bio- & Nanotechnology and Biomimetics (NLB2), Ohio State University, Columbus, USA ""I have been working as a bearing engineer for nearly two decades, and have come across many different machine design and application problems associated with the rolling element bearing. Most of the time, design problems can be handled quickly if the engineer has a good fundamental understanding of how a machine element works, but this information is unfortunately missing from most conventional treatments of the subject matter. This book gives the reader enough of a fundamental background to understand the machine elements and design the overall system, and it is highly recommended."" Mike Kotzalas, The Timken Company, Boca Raton, Florida, USA ""This book is a must for every mechanical engineering student for use as a textbook, and should be in every engineer s library as a reference book. I wish it was available 30 years ago! Jim Adams, Director, Technical Services, Metal Powder Industries Federation, Princeton, New Jersey, USA ""For many years a leading automobile company sponsored Berkeley research on the ""Composite Transmission Error Prediction for Automatic Transmissions."" I only wish this excellent book was available at that time to bring our software engineers 'up to speed' on gear fundamentals, manufacturing, and gear design synthesis, as well as other machine elements."" Paul Wright, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, University of California, Berkeley, USA"
