Features: This book is a teaching material for the Engineering Mechanics course, divided into three parts: The statics section includes force analysis of objects and equilibrium of force systems; The mechanics of materials section covers strength and stiffness calculations for basic deformations, stress states and strength theories, as well as combined deformation and column stability; The non-metallic materials section provides an introduction to the mechanical properties of non-metallic materials such as composites, polymers, and ceramics. Based on the fundamental requirements of the Engineering Mechanics course for technical disciplines in higher industrial schools, the relevant content of Theoretical Mechanics, Mechanics of Materials, and Engineering Materials is integrated to form a complete and coordinated system. The book elaborates on basic concepts, theories, and methods with concise language and rigorous arguments, emphasizing engineering applications and the cultivation of practical skills. It can serve as a textbook for undergraduate students in chemical engineering, light industry, textile, environmental protection, mining, and other disciplines in higher industrial schools, as well as for vocational and technical college students in mechanical and electrical engineering. Additionally, it is suitable for reference by faculty and students in higher education institutions, adult education, vocational colleges, correspondence colleges, and related engineering professionals.
