Designed to emphasize the fundamental principles, this book includes abundant applications to demonstrate and develop logical, orderly methods of procedure. Instead of deriving numerous formulas for all types of problems, the authors have stressed the use of free-body diagrams and the equations of equilibrium, together with the geometry of the deformed body and the observed relations between stress and strain, for the analysis of the force system action of a body.

These exciting books use full-color, and interesting, realistic illustrations to enhance reader comprehension. Also include a large number of worked examples that provide a good balance between initial, confidence building problems and more advanced level problems. Fundamental principles for solving problems are emphasized throughout.

Engineering Mechanics: Statics, 2nd Edition

A complete introduction to the physics of movement Engineering Mechanics: Dynamics presents the fundamentals of kinematics in a practical way with immediate real-world relevancy. Covering the physics of movement as it relates to particles and rigid bodies, this book explores the applications of Newton's laws, impulse, momentum, work and energy, vibrations, and much more. In-text conceptual examples illustrate difficult concepts, and end-of-chapter problems help students test both their theoretical and practical understanding. Call-out boxes highlight critical laws and theorems, while color diagrams and charts clarify complex concepts.

This book is also available through the Introductory Engineering Custom Publishing System. If you are interested in creating a course-pack that includes chapters from this book, you can get further information by calling 212-850-6272 or sending email inquiries to engineer&atsign;jwiley.com. Offers a refreshing approach to mechanics through a careful, step-by-step development of basic concepts. Exceptional, full-color art gives clarity and realism to the illustrations. Greater emphasis on free body diagrams provides a strong foundation. Covers moments of inertia and internal distribution extensively. Introduces distributed loads early for use in all subsequent rigid body equilibrium chapters, offering greater flexibility in the types of loads that can be applied to rigid bodies.

This revised text develops unique conceptual examples that relate fundamental engineering principles to situations engineers encounter in daily practice. These examples help students to develop qualitative reasoning and problem-solving skills. Many of the example and homework problems are new, and the homework problems are now grouped according to difficulty level. Other new study tools include hints in the example problems and highlighted key equations. The chapters on kinematics and kinetics have been revised to enhance clarity.

The second edition of Statics and Mechanics of Materials: An Integrated Approach continues to present students with an emphasis on the fundamental principles, with numerous applications to demonstrate and develop logical, orderly methods of procedure. Furthermore, the authors have taken measure to ensure clarity of the material for the student. Instead of deriving numerous formulas for all types of problems, the authors stress the use of free-body diagrams and the equations of equilibrium, together with the geometry of the deformed body and the observed relations between stress and strain, for the analysis of the force system action of a body.

Completely Revised and Redesigned For Today's Students Since 1960, this leading text has taught thousands of students the fundamentals of non rigid body mechanics. Now, the new author team of Riley, Sturges, and Morris have revised the text to appeal to today's students by updating the illustration program, adding design content, and including more realistic problem sets. The fifth edition is written in a clear and concise style and contains new illustrations throughout each chapter. The text stresses the use of fundamental principles and the concepts of mechanics to solve all problems. As a result, students must apply the information presented in each chapter to answer realistic problems instead of simply using formulas. This problem solving method motivates students to learn the material because they see how it is used in the real world. New Features of the Fifth Edition * A new introductory chapter containing a "Review of Statics" has been included. * Chapter 2 is reorganized to conform with the greater use of the stress transformation and principal stress equations in engineering practice. * Numerous example problems are used to show methods of analysis for typical mechanics of materials problems. Hints have been added to most of these example problems to help students understand the thought process required for their solution. * Each chapter concludes with a section on design. * Design Example problems and Design Homework problems have been added to most chapters. * There are over 1300 homework problems, many of which require the use of the computer for their solution.

In the 6th edition of Mechanics of Materials, author team Riley, Sturges, and Morris continue to provide students with the latest information in the field, as well as realistic and motivating problems. This updated revision of Mechanics of Materials (formerly Higdon, Olsen and Stiles) features thorough treatment of stress, strain, and the stress-strain relationships. These topics are covered before the customary treatments of axial loading, torsion, flexure, and buckling, allowing for earlier introduction of more realistic problems, such as those associated with combined loadings.
