Description:


The second edition of Statics and Mechanics of Materials:
An Integrated Approach continues to present students with
an emphasis on the fundamental principles, with numerous
applications to demonstrate and develop logical, orderly methods of
procedure. Furthermore, the authors have taken measure to ensure
clarity of the material for the student.


Instead of deriving numerous formulas for all types of problems,
the authors stress the use of free-body diagrams and the equations
of equilibrium, together with the geometry of the deformed body and
the observed relations between stress and strain, for the analysis
of the force system action of a body.
