Synopsis

Master the essentials of forces, motion, and fluids with a practical engineering guide

This edition presents a clear, workmanlike treatment of statics, dynamics, hydrostatics, and hydrodynamics, extended to liquids and gases.

It offers rigorous demonstrations of the fundamental principles and a wealth of solved examples to aid practical understanding.

Originally a standard text for engineers, the book has been revised and corrected by Edward Nugent, C.E., ensuring accurate, accessible guidance for students and practitioners alike. It emphasizes the practical use of forces, moments, and motions in real-world applications, from machinery to structures.

  • Foundational topics: statics, dynamics, hydrostatics, hydrodynamics, and pneumatics
  • Balanced explanations of force, movement, pressure, and equilibrium with worked examples
  • Practical tools: lever, wheel and axle, pulley systems, inclined planes, screws, and more
  • Application to living agents and machinery with methods suitable for design and analysis

Ideal for readers of classic engineering manuals and anyone tackling early courses in statics and dynamics.
