Vector Mechanics for Engineers - Statics and Dynamics

Informationen zum Autor Born in France and educated in France and Switzerland! Ferdinand Beer held an M.S. degree from the Sorbonne and an Sc.D. degree in theoretical mechanics from the University of Geneva. He came to the United States after serving in the French army during the early part of World War II and taught for four years at Williams College in the Williams-MIT joint arts and engineering program. Following his service at Williams College! Beer joined the faculty of Lehigh University! where he taught for thirty-seven years. He held several positions! including the University Distinguished Professors Chair and Chairman of the Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics Department. In 1995! Beer was awarded an honorary Doctor of Engineering degree by Lehigh University. Klappentext Continuing in the spirit of its successful previous editions! the tenth edition of Beer! Johnston! Mazurek! and Cornwell's Vector Mechanics for Engineers provides conceptually accurate and thorough coverage together with a significant refreshment of the exercise sets and online delivery of homework problems to your students. Nearly forty percent of the problems in the text are changed from the previous edition. The Beer/Johnston textbooks introduced significant pedagogical innovations into engineering mechanics teaching. The consistent! accurate problem-solving methodology gives your students the best opportunity to learn statics and dynamics. At the same time! the careful presentation of content! unmatched levels of accuracy! and attention to detail have made these texts the standard for excellence. Zusammenfassung Introduces significant pedagogical innovations into engineering mechanics teaching. This title offers a consistent problem-solving methodology that gives your students the best opportunity to learn statics and dynamics.
