are considered the two bibles on machine design and are common in machine design courses.
Materials Selection in Mechanical Design by Ashby
The Machinery's Handbook is a must have and I assume you already know about this.
Mechanisms and Mechanical Designs Sourcebook is good to help spark ideas or solve problems. There are other books along the same lines.
There's information on tolerancing and machining in The Machinery's Handbook especially. I'm not sure on other resources for those. There are books on manufacturing processes that'll discuss the tolerances capable and design limitations.
You can check out The Finite Element Method for Fluid Dynamics by Olek C Zienkiewicz, Robert L Taylor, P. Nithiarasu. He has three books in this series - Vol 1(Fundamentals), Vol 2(Solid Mechanics), and Vol 3(Fluid Dynamics).
There is another book - The Finite Element Method in Heat Transfer and Fluid Dynamics by J N Reddy.
