This book is designed to provide a mature, in-depth treatment of engineering mechanics at the undergraduate level and to offer continuity with, and a smooth transition to, upper-level courses. This text focuses on developing a solid understanding of basic principles rather than rote learning of specific methodologies.
Salient Features Offers an approach that improves continuity and provides a smooth transition to upper-level courses in other engineering sciences. Provides in-depth coverage of Screw Jack and Compound Pendulum
