Features: This book is developed based on the needs of curriculum system and teaching content reform in higher education institutions for the 21st century. It optimally integrates three courses—Mechanical Drawing, Engineering Mechanics, and Fundamentals of Mechanical Design—to help students master essential engineering fundamentals. The main content includes: basic knowledge of engineering drawing, mechanical drawings, force analysis and equilibrium of objects, deformation and failure analysis, common mechanisms, mechanical transmission, shaft systems, etc., comprising three parts and 20 chapters. A companion exercise book is also published. The book features a novel system and concise content, making it suitable for undergraduate students and teachers in mechanical engineering programs with fewer credits or non-mechanical majors in general universities. It can also be used by faculty and students in vocational colleges, adult universities, radio and correspondence universities, evening universities, and related professional fields. Additionally, it serves as a reference for engineering technicians engaged in mechanical design and manufacturing.
