Product Description

A comprehensive and well-illustrated introduction to theory and application of statics and mechanics of materials. This book presents a commitment to the development of problem-solving skills and features many pedagogical aids unique to Hibbeler books. Chapter topics include general principles, force vectors, equilibrium of a particle, force system resultants, equilibrium of a rigid body, structural analysis, internal forces, friction, center of gravity and centroid, movements of inertia, virtual work, stress, strain, mechanical properties of materials, axial load, torsion, bending, transverse shear, combined loadings, stress transformation, strain transformation, design of beams and shafts, deflections of beams and shafts, buckling of columns, and energy methods. For engineering mechanics.


Reviews


Good Textbook
I bought this book about 4 months ago for my Statics class at university. The book is well organized and the concepts as well as the examples are easy to follow. I have found it to be a very good reference especially if one is learning some of the concepts mentioned in the book from scratch. There is a sufficient number of examples and problems for one to digest the material.

On the downside, the book does not have the feel of a general purpose reference book and should be regarded as a textbook that is to be followed in order to learn the material inside.

Very good book to learn
Statics and Mechanics of Materials by R.C.HIBBELER

Statics: 1) General Principles 2) Force Vectors 3) Force System Resultants 4) Equilibrium 5) Structural Analysis 6) Geometric Properties and Distributed Loadings 7) Internal Loadings

Mechanics of Materials: 8) Stress and Strain 9) Mechanical Properties of Materials 10) Axial Load 11) Torsion 12) Bending 13) Transverse Shear 14) Combined Loadings 15) Stress and Strain Transformations 16) Design of Beams 17) Buckling of Columns

My Comment About The Book: I think this is one of the best books interested in statics and mechanics. You can learn all subjects easyly and you can see lots of applications with very good examples. If you really want to learn buy it!
