Features: From the first to the fifth edition, this book has been well-received by and students. The current edition retains the rigorous theoretical foundation, clear logic, progressive approach, and teaching-friendly style and system of the previous five editions. It has appropriately raised the starting point and added some new content to meet the needs of the 21st century. This book is a national-level planning textbook for general higher education under the "Tenth Five-Year Plan." The current edition is divided into two volumes. Volume I includes statics, kinematics, general theorems of dynamics, D'Alembert's principle, and the principle of virtual displacement, among others. Most medium-sized specialized courses only need Volume I. Volume II includes dynamics of particles in non-inertial systems, collisions, fundamentals of analytical mechanics, fundamentals of mechanical vibration, fixed-axis rotation and free-body motion of rigid bodies, and dynamics of variable mass, among others. Each major can select according to its needs. Each volume is accompanied by a large number of thought questions and exercises. This book can be used as a textbook for theoretical mechanics courses in engineering majors of higher education institutions, as self-study and correspondence teaching materials for night universities, correspondence universities, and workers' universities, and can also be referenced by relevant engineering technicians. This book is the volume of theoretical mechanics, and its content includes: statics, general theorems of dynamics, D'Alembert's principle, and the principle of virtual displacement, among others.
