DESCRIPTION:
For professionals in mechanical, civil, aeronautical, or engineering mechanics fields. Chapter topics include: Motion of a Point; Force, Mass, and Acceleration; Energy Methods; Momentum Methods; Planar Kinematics of Rigid Bodies; Planar Dynamics of Rigid Bodies; Energy and Momentum in Rigid Body Dynamics; Three-Dimensional Kinematics and Dynamics of Rigid Bodies; Vibrations. . From the Back Cover This book presents the foundations and applications of statics by emphasizing the importance of visual analysis of topics—especially through the use of free body diagrams. Includes a revised discussion of reference frames. The authors further include design and computational examples that help integrate these ABET 2000 requirements. It also promotes a problem-solving approach to solving examples through its strat
"This book is good." according to Master. One of the best books available on this subject in my opinion. I learned better from this book than I did from any of my teachers. Great examples, reasonable problems. Full color and great explanations of the concepts. And with the help of the available solutions manual, you might not even need to take the course to learn it.. Seems okay, presentation was clear and logical gigahertz Was able to understand the examples and the illistrations were clear. Materialwell covered. horrible, find a better book Dementyev Dementyev What I as a student found lacking in this book: 1.) It has many problems, which is a good thing, but this fact is negated by its lack of a publically available solutions manual and numerous and obvious misprints. 2.) Many of the examples gloss over important points to note and I found many vague and cursory. The instructor I had used more detailed material from other textbooks. Many examples also appeared to be used as a substitute for generalized text explainations and diagrams. It also seemed rather vague on the more theroetical aspects of the material. Considering all the other Statics textbooks out there

This book presents the foundations and applications of statics by emphasizing the importance of visual analysis of topics—especially through the use of free body diagrams. Features strong coverage of free-body and kinetic diagrmas. The authors further include design and computational examples that help integrate these ABET 2000 requirements. It also promotes a problem-solving approach to solving examples through its strategy, solution, and discussion format. Chapter topics include: Motion of a Point; Force, Mass, and Acceleration; Energy Methods; Momentum Methods; Planar Kinematics of Rigid Bodies; Planar Dynamics of Rigid Bodies; Energy and Momentum in Rigid Body Dynamics; Three-Dimensional Kinematics and Dynamics of Rigid Bodies; Vibrations. For professionals in mechanical, civil, aeronautical, or engineering mechanics fields.. Includes a revised discussion of reference frames
