Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

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 possiblewithout becoming too involved with many extraneous details. The volume addresses forces, vectors, and resultants, moments and couples, equilibrium, structures and members, three-dimensional equilibrium, friction, centroids and center of gravity, moment of inertia, kinematics, kinetics, work, energy, and power and impulse and momentum.For those interested in an introduction to applied mechanics.

Dalla quarta di copertina

Combining a straightforward foundation in underlying physics principles with a consistent method of problem solving, the new edition ofApplied Mechanics for Engineering Technology strips a problem to essentials and solves it in a logical, organized manner. By presenting physics principles in small elementary steps, the text keeps mathematics at a practical and reasonable level.

Key features of this text include:

• Applied problems that minimize extraneous information while reinforcing applications in a logical sequence
• Clean diagrams in an open space format, allowing for easy reading
• 175 worked examples and 960 graded application problems of varying complexity
