Features: This book includes force analysis on particles and rigid bodies in statics, force system simplification, friction, equilibrium equations and their applications, as well as the basic deformation of materials such as tension and compression, shear and extrusion, torsion, and bending. It also covers the kinematics and dynamics fundamentals of particles and rigid bodies. Additionally, it provides a brief introduction to the stability of compression members, dynamic loads, alternating stresses, material endurance limits, strength theories, the reinforcement effects of composite materials, and the mechanical properties of polymer and ceramic materials. The first nine chapters of this book can serve as teaching material for two-year vocational college programs in mechanical and electrical engineering, with recommended teaching hours of 36-48. The entire book can be used as teaching material for three-year vocational and technical college programs, with recommended teaching hours of 48-60. This book is suitable as teaching material for two-year and three-year vocational and technical college programs in mechanical and electrical engineering, automotive, mold, and CNC, as well as for engineering mechanics courses in correspondence universities, television universities, and distance education programs for mechanical engineering.
