Synopsis
Excerpt from Applied Mechanics: An Elementary General Introduction to the Theory of Structures and Machines; With Diagrams, Illustrations, and Examples
Or: the author's appointment to lecture on Mechanics in the Royal Naval College, a course of elementary lessons was commenced, based on Raxmx's well-known treatise, with such assistawc as could be obtained from other sources. After some years this course assumed a tolerably permanent form, and it was thought desirable to print it, partly From the inconvenience to students of being exclusively depen dent on an] instruction, and partly from an idea that it might be used'nl to others besides those who were immediately addressed. The place which these lectures occupy in the programme of the College Will be found explained in an Appendix.

Applied Mechanics (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an introductory guide to the study of structures and machines, setting the basic analytical foundation for engineering design. The author, an esteemed British academic, draws on his expertise to provide readers with a concise and informative overview of the field of applied mechanics. The book begins with the analysis of 'statically determinate' structures - frameworks such as bridges and cranes - where loads are transferred through their members as forces of tension and compression. The author then uses these concepts to introduce an analysis of 'dynamically indeterminate' structures, such as beams and trusses, where forces are transferred internally as bending stresses. This approach gives the reader a deep understanding of the behavior of structures under load, allowing them to analyze and design real-world constructions. The book stands as a valuable introductory text for students of engineering and applied mechanics, offering a lucid explanation of fundamental principles and their application to practical design problems. Its exploration of advanced topics in structural analysis also makes it a useful reference for practicing engineers seeking to expand their knowledge. Through its systematic and comprehensive approach, the book empowers readers to think critically and creatively about the design and analysis of structures and machines, making it an essential companion for any aspiring engineer. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282159801_0
