( More than just a book, this volume is part of a system...)
More than just a book, this volume is part of a system to teach engineering mechanics, a system comprised of three components: 1) this core principles book, 2) algorithmic problem material available online, and 3) a course management system to track and monitor student progress. KEY TOPICS Chapter topics cover vectors; forces; systems of forces and moments; objects and structures in equilibrium; centroids and centers of mass; moments of inertia; friction; internal forces and moments; virtual work and potential energy; motion of a point; force, mass, and acceleration; energy and 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; and vibrations. For individuals preparing for a career in engineering mechanics.

Presents the linear theory of elasticity culminating in the displacement equations of motion. Analyzes one-dimensional waves through the d'Alembert solution and the method of characteristics. Discusses transient waves, analytical methods in nonlinear wave propagation, and includes examples of harmonic waves such as reflections of plane waves at interfaces, Rayleigh waves, waves in elastic layers and in layered materials.

While covering the basic principles of mechanics in an example-driven format, this innovative book emphasizes critical thinking by presenting the reader with engineering situations. Compelling photorealistic art, and a robust photograph program helps readers to connect visually to the topics discussed. Features strong coverage of FBDs and important ABET topics. For professionals in mechanical, civil, aeronautical, or engineering mechanics fields.

ALERT: Before you purchase, check with your instructor or review your course syllabus to ensure that you select the correct ISBN. Several versions of Pearson's MyLab & Mastering products exist for each title, including customized versions for individual schools, and registrations are not transferable. In addition, you may need a CourseID, provided by your instructor, to register for and use Pearson's MyLab & Mastering products. Packages Access codes for Pearson's MyLab & Mastering products may not be included when purchasing or renting from companies other than Pearson; check with the seller before completing your purchase. Used or rental books If you rent or purchase a used book with an access code, the access code may have been redeemed previously and you may have to purchase a new access code. Access codes Access codes that are purchased from sellers other than Pearson carry a higher risk of being either the wrong ISBN or a previously redeemed code.
