The third edition of Engineering Mechanics: Statics written by nationally regarded authors Andrew Pytel and Jaan Kiusalaas, provides students with solid coverage of material without the overload of extraneous detail. The extensive teaching experience of the authorship team provides first-hand knowledge of the learning skill levels of today’s student which is reflected in the text through the pedagogy and the tying together of real world problems and examples with the fundamentals of Engineering Mechanics. Designed to teach students how to effectively analyze problems before plugging numbers into formulas, students benefit tremendously as they encounter real life problems that may not always fit into standard formulas. This book was designed with a rich, concise, two-color presentation and has a stand alone Study Guide which includes further problems, examples, and case studies.

Features

The early introduction of the relationship between force and acceleration used in this pedagogy allows students to realize much sooner how Newton’s laws of motion can be used to analyze problems.
Where appropriate, sample problems are solved using both scalar and vector notations allowing for increased problem solving skills.
Equilibrium analysis of problems is uniquely taught using three steps: (1) how to draw free-body diagrams; (2) how to analyze problems using given free-body diagrams; and (3) how to perform complete problem analyses by combining the previous two steps.
The solutions of sample problems that require equilibrium analyses are discussed using a unique and orderly technique using three general subdivisions: (i) Method of Analysis (ii) Mathematical Details (iii) Other Methods of Analysis
The equilibrium analysis of a single body and connected bodies (often referred to as “frames and machines”) are discussed in detail in a single comprehensive chapter.
Sample problems requiring numerical integration are included.
