Mechanics of Materials, 9/e (SI Edition)(Paperback)

本書序言

●CONCISE CHAPTER OBJECTIVES INTRODUCE KEY LEARNING GOALS. These brief Objectives begin each chapter and direct students’ attention to the chapter’s most important concepts and skills.
●UPDATED EXAMPLES THROUGHOUT DEMONSTRATE THE NEW FOUR-STEP PROBLEM-SOLVING APPROACH. This major feature teaches students how to systematically analyze, dissect, and solve structural design problems as well as evaluate solutions to ensure they are reasonable and consistent with solutions to similar problems.
●NEW AND UPDATED EXAMPLE PROBLEMS, PHOTOS AND ILLUSTRATIONS ADD CLARITY. Even more state-of-the-art graphics and photographs relate the theory to real world scenarios so that students can see real world problems alongside simplified models and diagrams for its analysis. These graphics also heighten student interest in the material.
●NEW END-OF-CHAPTER PROBLEMS OFFER OPTIONS FOR HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS. This edition, known for its accuracy and thorough presentation, now offers many additional problems to reinforce the concepts and skills students are learning.
●INTRODUCTORY PROBLEMS BEGIN EACH SECTION. These new problems now begin the sections in each chapter and are followed by representative problems arranged in order of increasing difficulty. Sections also include advanced and computer problems when relevant.
