Description
It is intended that this book provide the student with a clear and thorough presentation of the theory and application of the principles of mechanics of materials. To achieve this objective, over the years this work has been shaped by the comments and suggestions of hundreds of reviewers in the teaching profession, as well as many of the author’s students. The eighth edition has been significantly enhanced from the
previous edition, and it is hoped that both the instructor and student will benefit greatly from these improvements.
The subject matter is organized into 14 chapters. Chapter 1 begins with a review of the important concepts of statics, followed by a formal definition of both normal and shear stress, and a discussion of normal stress in axially loaded members and average shear stress caused by direct shear.
Having apprehend and acclimated several books in this area, my admired one is this book. While belief for my PE endure year in Mechanical Engineering, I approved to use Gere and Timoshenko, but begin it to be difficult to read. I was accustomed with R.C. Hibbeler’s Engineering Mechanics books, and admired his autograph appearance and consistent “ease of presenting abstruse engineering capacity in a clear architecture with abounding examples and applied problems.” So I got a archetype of this book and begin it to be actual able-bodied organized, actual readable, actual acceptable abstracts and illustrations, and actual applied and useful. So I would awful acclaim this book to all, forth with R.C. Hibbeler’s added books.
