Excerpt from The Essential Elements of Practical Mechanics, Based on the Principle of Work: Designed for Engineering Students
While this work is designed to meet the exigencies of these changes and circumstances, and 'dispense with the higher geometry and an extensive use of analytical symbols, it will be found to extend the boundaries as well as simplify the practical application of this branch of philosophy, and to contain solutions of many important problems which have hitherto defied the skill of mathematicians.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an essential guide to practical mechanics, containing useful propositions and rules related to steam engines. Assembled by an author who was a prominent civil and mechanical engineer, it builds upon what is termed the principle of work, providing a comprehensive study of the subject. The book begins with a historical overview of mechanics before the introduction of mathematical equations, then proceeds to explore themes of friction, gravity, and energy. It concludes with explorations of hydrostatic presses, anti-friction cam-presses, and other important engineering topics. Through this work, the author presents a clear and accessible framework for understanding practical mechanics, making it a valuable resource for students and practitioners alike.
