Vector mechanics for engineers. Statics and dynamics / Statics and dynamics Ferdinand P. Beer, University, E. Russell Johnston, Jr., David F. Mazurek, Phillip J. Cornwell, Brian P. Self. - Eleventh edition. - New York, NY : McGraw-Hill Education, c2016. - xxii, 1411 pages, 37 variously numbered pages ; 26 cm
Includes index
Introduction -- Statics of particles -- Rigid bodies: equivalent systems of forces -- Equilibrium of rigid bodies -- Distributed forces: centroids and centers of gravity -- Analysis of structures -- Internal forces and moments -- Friction -- Distributed forces: moments of inertia -- Method of virtual work -- Kinematics of particles -- Kinetics of particles: Newton’s second law -- Kinetics of particles: Energy and momentum methods -- Systems of particles --Kinematics of rigid bodies -- Plane motion of rigid bodies: forces and accelerations -- Plane motion of rigid bodies: energy and momentum methods --
Kinetics of rigid bodies in three dimensions -- Mechanical vibrations -- Appendix: Fundamentals of engineering examination.
" first course in mechanics should develop a student’s ability to analyze and solve
problems using well-understood basic principles applied in a simple, logical manner. The
emphasis of the 11th edition of Vector Mechanics continues this tradition and focuses on the correct understanding of the principles of mechanics and on their application to the solving of engineering problems. New to this edition, the text employs the SMART Problem-Solving Methodology in all Sample Problems. The SMART approach is used to consistently promote a systematic approach to solving engineering problems – Strategy, Modeling, Analysis, and Reflect & Think. The presentation and methodology is intended to support students applying this approach in al assigned problems. To further support student learning, practical applications are introduced early, new concepts are introduced simply, and fundamental principles are placed in simple contexts. Students are given extensive practice through Sample Problems, special sections entitled Solving Problems on Your Own, and extensive homework problem sets."--Back cover
