Book Description
This book uniquely covers both Statics and Dynamics together with a section on background mathematics, providing the student with everything needed to complete typical first year undergraduate courses. Students often find it difficult to visualize problems and grasp the mathematics, but Roberts' friendly approach makes life easier for both student and tutor, tackling concepts from first principles with many examples, exercises and helpful diagrams. The revision section on introductory mathematics is a huge bonus, allowing students to catch up on the pre-requisite mathematics needed to work through both courses.

Applied Mathematics
Author: Patrick Murphy
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
ISBN: 1483141969
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
Applied Mathematics: Made Simple provides an elementary study of the three main branches of classical applied mathematics: statics, hydrostatics, and dynamics. The book begins with discussion of the concepts of mechanics, parallel forces and rigid bodies, kinematics, motion with uniform acceleration in a straight line, and Newton's law of motion. Separate chapters cover vector algebra and coplanar motion, relative motion, projectiles, friction, and rigid bodies in equilibrium under the action of coplanar forces. The final chapters deal with machines and hydrostatics. The standard and content of the book covers C.S.E. and 'O' level G.C.E. examinations in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics as well as the relevant parts of the syllabuses for Physics and General Science courses related to Engineering, Building, and Agriculture. The book is also written for the home study reader who is interested in widening his mathematical appreciation or simply reviving forgotten ideas. The author hopes that the style of presentation will be found sufficiently attractive to recapture those who may at one time have lost interest.

Statics

Pages : 310
Book Description
A. S. Ramsey (1867-1954) was a distinguished Cambridge mathematician and President of Magdalene College. He wrote several textbooks 'for the use of higher divisions in schools and for first year students at university'. This book on statics, published in 1934, was intended as a companion volume to his Dynamics of 1929 and like the latter was based upon his lectures to students of the mathematical tripos, but it assumes no prior knowledge of the subject, provides an introduction and offers more that 100 example problems with their solutions. Topics include vectors, forces acting at a point, moments, friction, centres of gravity, work and energy, and elasticity.

Publisher:
ISBN: 9781292451930
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
For Dynamics courses. A proven approach to conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills Engineering Mechanics: Dynamics excels in providing a clear and thorough presentation of the theory and application of engineering mechanics. Engineering Mechanics empowers students to succeed by drawing upon Professor Hibbeler's decades of everyday classroom experience and his knowledge of how students learn. The text is shaped by the comments and suggestions of hundreds of reviewers in the teaching profession, as well as many of the author's students. A variety of new video types are available for the 15th Edition in SI units. The author carefully developed each video to expertly demonstrate how to solve problems, model the best way to reach a solution, and give students extra opportunities to practice honing their problem-solving skills; he also summarizes key concepts discussed in the text, supported by additional figures, animations, and photos. The text provides a large variety of problems, 30% of which are new, with varying levels of difficulty that cover a broad range of engineering disciplines and stress practical, realistic situations. An expanded Answer Section in the back of the book now includes additional information related to the solution of select Fundamental and Review Problems in order to offer students even more guidance in solving the problems. Also available with Mastering Engineering with Pearson eText Mastering(R) empowers you to personalize learning and reach every student. This flexible digital platform allows you to integrate unique, automatically graded homework and practice problems with exercises from the textbook. With interactive, self-paced tutorials and many end-of-section problems that provide individualized coaching, students become active participants in their learning, leading to better results. The Mastering gradebook lets you easily track the performance of your entire class on an assignment-by-assignment basis, or the detailed work of an individual student. Learn more about Mastering Engineering. Pearson eText is an easy-to-use digital textbook available within Mastering that lets students read, highlight, and take notes, all in one place. If you're not using Mastering, students can purchase Pearson eText on their own.

Statistical Physics: Statics, Dynamics And Renormalization
Author: Leo P Kadanoff
Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company
ISBN: 981310290X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 501
Book Description
The material presented in this invaluable textbook has been tested in two courses. One of these is a graduate-level survey of statistical physics; the other, a rather personal perspective on critical behavior. Thus, this book defines a progression starting at the book-learning part of graduate education and ending in the midst of topics at the research level. To supplement the research-level side the book includes some research papers. Several of these are classics in the field, including a suite of six works on self-organized criticality and complexity, a pair on diffusion-limited aggregation, some papers on correlations near critical points, a few of the basic sources on the development of the real-space renormalization group, and several papers on magnetic behavior in a plain geometry. In addition, the author has included a few of his own papers.
