<p>An ideal reference or refresher on the principles and techniques of applied mechanics. Each topic is developed in a consistent manner: physics principles are presented in small elementary steps; the mathematics is kept at a reasonable level; an abundance of worked examples steps readers through problem-solving strategies; and problems (all with answers) are as practical as possible <i>without</i> becoming too involved with many extraneous details. Provides checklist "Hints for Problem-Solving" sections and a comprehensive math review (algebra, trigonometry, and geometry). STATICS. Forces, Vectors, and Resultants. Moments and Couples. Equilibrium. Structures and Members. Three-Dimensional Equilibrium. Friction. Centroids and Center of Gravity. Moment of Interia. DYNAMICS. Kinematics: Rectilinear Motion. Kinematics: Angular Motion. Plane Motion. Kinetics. Work, Energy, and Power. Impulse and Momentum. A reference or refresher in applied mechanics for engineers.</p>

Applied Mechanics for Engineering Technology (6th Edition)

PRENTICE/HALL

For courses in Statics and Dynamics offered by Engineering Technology Departments.This introduction to applied mechanics combines a straightforward, readable foundation in underlying physics principles with a consistent method of problem solving that strips a problem to essentials and solves it in a logical, organized manner. It presents the physics principles in small elementary steps; keeps the mathematics at a reasonable level (algebra, trigonometry and geometry are used); provides an abundance of worked examples; and features problems that are as practical as possible without becoming too involved with many extraneous details.
