Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a thorough introduction to the principles of applied mechanics, starting with basic concepts then moving on to more complex topics, including a discussion of screw motion. The author begins with a survey of mensuration and curve construction, since an understanding of these is required for further study of applied mechanics. The author explains how to determine the moment of inertia and other properties of shape required to solve mechanics problems. The book also covers more complex topics like projectiles, friction, and the analysis of forces in various mechanical systems, including pulleys, belts, gears, and brakes. The author includes worked examples throughout and concludes with valuable information on experimental results and strength of materials, considering elasticity, testing, and impact resistance.
