Plesha,Gray, and Costanzo’s Engineering Mechanics: Statics &
Dynamics presents the fundamental concepts, clearly, in a modern
context using applications and pedagogical devices that connect
with today’s students. The text features a five-part problem-solving
methodology that is consistently used throughout all example problems.
This methodology helps students lay out the steps necessary to
correct problem-formulation and explains the steps needed to arrive
at correct and realistic solutions. Once students have fully mastered
the basic concepts, they are taught appropriate use of modern
computational tools where applicable. Further reinforcing the text's
modern emphasis, the authors have brought engineering design considerations
into selected problems where appropriate. This sensitizes
students to the fact that engineering problems do not have a single
answer and many different routes lead to a correct solution.
The first new mainstream text in engineering mechanics in nearly
twenty years, Plesha, Gray, and Costanzo’s Engineering Mechanics:
Statics and Dynamics will help your students learn this important
material efficiently and effectively.
FEATURES
v 5-Part Problem Solving Methodology used in all example problems.
A consistent problem-solving approach is used throughout. Each
example problem is solved using a "template" that helps students
effectively set up the problem and solve it correctly.
v Introduces Appropriate Use of Computational Tools. Fundamental
concepts are taught thoroughly, and the use of computational tools
is taught when appropriate.
v Appropriate Design Coverage. The authors have brought
engineering design considerations into selected problems where
applicable. This will sensitize students to the fact that engineering
problems do not have a single answer and many different routes
lead to a correct solution.
v Real World Examples, Problems, Applications, Photographs. All
the photographs, applications, examples are from the real world, so
that students will be able to identify circumstances that they encounter
in there daily lives.
v Online Homework features selected problems from the text and
algorithmically-generated problems that give the instructor a wide
array of homework assignment options.
