A clear, concise writing style and more examples than any other text further contribute to students’ ability to master the material. Throughout the text, usually at the end of each chapter, there is a set of problems that involve conceptual situations related to the application of the mechanics principles contained in the chapter. These analysis and design problems are intended to engage the students in thinking through a real-life situation as depicted in a photo.
Many photographs are used throughout the book to explain how the principles of mechanics apply to real-world situation. Most photographs were taken by the author, and include appropriate vectors and notation illustrating a mechanics concept.
This edition is available with MasteringEngineering, an innovative online program created to emulate the instructor’s office–hour environment, guiding students through engineering concepts from Mechanics of Materials with self-paced individualized coaching.
