Knovel Partners with ASM International to Enhance Engineering References

By DE Editors

Knovel, a Web-based application integrating technical information with analytical and search tools, today announced a partnership with ASM International, The Materials Information Society. ASM publishes information on selection, properties, processing, and performance of materials ranging from metals and alloys through plastics and ceramics in handbook, dataset, and atlas forms. Knovel partners with more than 70 international professional societies and publishers to ensure engineers have access to technical content across 23 engineering subject areas. ASM’s published content will be combined with Knovel’s data search capabilities and interactive analysis tools. 

The combination of expanded materials information alongside best practice information on processing, design, and development, will enable engineers using Knovel to access more of the data they need and incorporate it into their work.

“Partnering with Knovel means that ASM’s leading knowledge base of materials data will reach even more engineers,” says Stan Theobald, managing director of ASM International. “By combining our content with the interactive, personalized and optimized data search features provided by Knovel, engineers will be able to make better choices when selecting materials for their products and projects.”

“Our customers turn to Knovel for trusted materials information to reduce design time and make better choices,” says Delores Meglio, vice president, publisher relations for Knovel. “It was clear to us that ASM was the ideal partner to help us expand our materials information offering. We’re thrilled to be able to offer our customers Knovel’s data search and analysis tools in conjunction with ASM’s data rich content.”

ASM content will be available to Knovel subscribers this summer. For more information, visit Knovel.
