Statics: Learning from Engineering Examples
Description
This textbook introduces and explains the basic concepts on which statics is
based utilizing real engineering examples. The authors emphasize the learning
process by showing a real problem, analyzing it, simplifying it, and
developing a way to solve it. This feature teaches students intuitive thinking
in solving real engineering problems using the fundamentals of Newton’s
laws.This book also:· Stresses representation of physical reality in ways that
allow students to solve problems and obtain meaningful results· Emphasizes
identification of important features of the structure that should be included
in a model and which features may be omitted · Facilitates students’
understanding and mastery of the “flow of thinking” practiced by professional
engineers Read more
