The first three books in Stuart Field's 'John Steel' series of crime thrillers, now available in one volume! Steel And Shadows: When former British Special Forces agent John Steel arrives in New York to find the person in a photograph after his family's brutal murder, he joins forces with NYPD detective Samantha McCall investigating a triple homicide. What seems like the work of a serial killer becomes a web of deceit with mercenaries, shadowy informants and ghosts from the past. Soon, Steel and McCall uncover unexpected alliances and a complex network of treachery. But can they crack the case? Hidden Steel: Detective John Steel goes undercover on a cruise ship in the UK to investigate the organization that killed his family. In New York, his NYPD partner, Detective Samantha McCall, investigates a series of deaths linked to the same cruise ship. With the clock ticking and unexpected obstacles at every turn, the two detectives must work together to solve the case and stop a dangerous plot from unfolding. Broken Steel: After a decade behind bars for his wife's murder, Brian Armstrong escapes during a prison transport mishap, hellbent on revenge. But when a former teacher is found dead, Detective John Steel and partner Samantha McCall must investigate the mysterious circumstances surrounding the murder and Armstrong's escape. As the case deepens, they discover unexpected connections that challenge their investigation and put them in a race against time to catch the killer.

This book is intended to serve as core text or handy reference on two key areas of metallic materials: (i) mechanical behavior and properties evaluated by mechanical testing; and (ii) different types of metal working or forming operations to produce useful shapes. The book consists of 16 chapters which are divided into two parts. The first part contains nine chapters which describe tension (including elastic stress – strain relation, relevant theory of plasticity, and strengthening methods), compression, hardness, bending, torsion – pure shear, impact loading, creep and stress rupture, fatigue, and fracture. The second part is composed of seven chapters and covers fundamentals of mechanical working, forging, rolling, extrusion, drawing of flat strip, round bar, and tube, deep drawing, and high-energy rate forming. The book comprises an exhaustive description of mechanical properties evaluated by testing of metals and metal working in sufficient depth and with reasonably wide coverage. The book is written in an easy-to-understand manner and includes many solved problems. More than 150 numerical problems and many multiple choice questions as exercise along with their answers have also been provided. The mathematical analyses are well elaborated without skipping any intermediate steps. Slab method of analysis or free-body equilibrium approach is used for the analytical treatment of mechanical working processes. For hot working processes, different frictional conditions (sliding, sticking and mixed sticking–sliding) have been considered to estimate the deformation loads. In addition to the slab method of analysis, this book also contains slip-line field theory, its application to the static system, and the steady state motion, Further, this book includes upper-bound theorem, and upper-bound solutions for indentation, compression, extrusion and strip drawing. The book can be used to teach graduate and undergraduate courses offered to students of mechanical, aerospace, production, manufacturing and metallurgical engineering disciplines. The book can also be used for metallurgists and practicing engineers in industry and development courses in the metallurgy and metallic manufacturing industries.
