Technical Mechanics, Statics, and Dynamics (1917)

Technical Mechanics, Statics, and Dynamics is a comprehensive textbook written by Edward Rose Maurer and first published in 1917. The book covers the principles of statics and dynamics, two fundamental areas of mechanics that are essential in the study of engineering and physics. The first part of the book focuses on statics, which is the study of objects at rest or in equilibrium. It covers topics such as forces, moments, couples, free-body diagrams, and the analysis of trusses, frames, and machines. The second part of the book deals with dynamics, which is the study of objects in motion. It covers topics such as kinematics, kinetics, work and energy, impulse and momentum, and the motion of rigid bodies. The book is written in a clear and concise style, with numerous examples and problems to help students understand the concepts. It also includes a large number of illustrations and diagrams to aid in visualization of the concepts. The book is suitable for students of engineering, physics, and other related fields, as well as for professionals who need a refresher on the principles of mechanics. Overall, Technical Mechanics, Statics, and Dynamics is a timeless classic that remains relevant and useful to this day. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the principles of mechanics and their applications in engineering and physics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
