Features: This book is characterized by comprehensive content, a complete system, fluent narration, appropriate depth, rigorous theory, practical application, gradual progression, clear logic, typical examples, easy extension, well-chosen exercises with answers, reasonable selection of materials, ease of teaching, additional special topics, elevated starting point, and accompanied by the supplementary textbook Methods and Techniques for Solving Theoretical Mechanics Problems. This book is a national-level excellent course textbook for Theoretical Mechanics and a planned textbook for the National Engineering Teaching Base in Mechanics. Based on the basic requirements for teaching Theoretical Mechanics in higher industrial schools, the book is divided into two volumes. The first volume covers statics, kinematics, dynamics of particles, vibration of particles, general principles of dynamics, and D'Alembert's principle, among others. The second volume includes topics such as collisions, the principle of virtual displacement, Lagrange's equations, vibration of two-degree-of-freedom systems, and dynamics of rigid bodies, among others. The entire book is accompanied by discussion questions, exercises, and answers. This book can serve as a textbook for Theoretical Mechanics courses in higher industrial schools for majors such as mechanical engineering, aerospace, aviation, navigation, civil engineering, electromechanical engineering, and power engineering. It is also suitable for adult education materials in related fields and as a reference for engineering professionals.
