Engineering Mechanics–Statics and Dynamics is an ideal textbook designed essentially for all engineering students. Adequately equipped with numerous solved problems and exercises, this book provides sufficient material for a two-semester course or two one-semester courses (separately in Statics and Dynamics) in Engineering Mechanics. The book is comprehensive enough to serve as a reference for practising engineers and for those preparing for competitive examinations.
This book Useful for Mechanical Engineering Students.
