Synopsis

This edition delivers theory with a few clear statements as each subject is developed through practical examples organized in a systematic format. It aims to provide a more comprehensive maths review and includes algebra and geometry to accommodate students with varied backgrounds in math. Applied problems at the end of each chapter have been increased by 15 percent and are now grouped and referenced to the corresponding sections within each chapter to provide students with easier reference. An expanded section on Free-body diagrams emphasizes what needs to be done and why it needs to be done in order to assist students in developing and mastering this important problem solving tool.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Combining a straightforward foundation in underlying physics principles with a consistent method of problem solving, the new edition of Applied 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

Présentation de l'éditeur

For courses in Statics and Dynamics offered by Engineering Technology Departments.

This introduction to applied mechanics text 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.
