Provide your mechanical engineering students with a solid understanding of statics without the overload of extraneous detail in Andrew Pytel and Jaan Kiusalaas' ENGINEERING MECHANICS: STATICS, 4E. The authors use their extensive teaching experience and first-hand knowledge to deliver a presentation that's ideally suited to the learning skills of today's students. The authors clearly introduce critical concepts using learning features that connect real problems and examples with the fundamentals of engineering mechanics. Students learn how to analyze problems successfully before substituting numbers into formulas. This approach benefits students tremendously as they encounter actual engineering situations that do not adhere to standard formulas. This book's rich, concise presentation is complemented by a useful Student Study Guide that clarifies concepts with additional examples and problems as well as a wealth of instructor resources to save you time.

Now you can teach a rigorous, complete, and integrated treatment of two essential subject areas in engineering mechanics--statics and mechanics of materials--with Goodno/Gere’s STATICS AND MECHANICS OF MATERIALS, 1st Edition. This complete text helps you establish a strong foundation for further study in mechanics for mechanical, structural, civil, biomedical, petroleum, nuclear, aeronautical, and aerospace engineering students. The authors present numerous practical problems based on real structures, highlighting the information with state-of-the-art graphics, photographs, and detailed drawings of free-body diagrams. All example problems and end-of-chapter problems follow a systematic Four-Step Problem-Solving Approach. Students will gain increased understanding of and proficiency in setting up, formulating efficient analytical models and then solving a variety of mechanics problems as they proceed through the text.

Teach students the fundamental principles of Newtonian dynamics and how to apply these principles to the analysis of real-world engineering with Pytel/Kiusalaas' ENGINEERING MECHANICS: DYNAMICS, 4E. Students learn how to analyze problems successfully before substituting numbers into formulas. This approach prepares students for actual engineering situations that do not adhere to standard formulas. This edition begins with the analysis of particle dynamics before considering the motion of rigid-bodies. You can easily limit your course to covering only particle motion. The text discusses in detail the three fundamental methods of problem solution: force-mass-acceleration, work-energy, and impulse-momentum. The authors also cover the use of numerical methods to solve dynamics problems. These clearly identified sections let you use as many numerical methods as desired. A useful Student Study Guide further clarifies concepts while a wealth of instructor resources save you time.
