《材料力學性能》是根據(jù)教育部最新頒布的課程教學基本要求和課程改革的精神編寫的，以英文為表達形式，在內(nèi)容和形式上有較大的更新，為材料性能學課程開展雙語教學提供適用教材。
全書共十章，以工程材料的強度—硬度—塑性—韌性力學性能為主線，前七章詳細闡述金屬材料的力學性能，后三章分別闡述高分子材料、陶瓷材料和復合材料的力學性能，重點闡述工程材料在靜載荷、沖擊載荷和交變載荷及在環(huán)境介質(zhì)（高溫和腐蝕條件）作用下的力學性能，并從斷裂力學的角度出發(fā)，重點闡述工程材料的抗斷裂性能等。《材料力學性能》以闡述宏觀規(guī)律為主，將宏觀規(guī)律與微觀機理相結(jié)合，同時強調(diào)理論與實際相聯(lián)系。
《材料力學性能》作為機械類和材料類學生的專業(yè)基礎課程材料性能學的教學用書，適用于48～64學時教學，主要面向機械類和材料類專本科學生，也可供近機類和近材料類專業(yè)選用，還可供有關工程技術人員學習參考。
