Features: This book is a supplementary textbook for engineering mechanics courses in higher education institutions. It aims to enhance readers' analytical and problem-solving abilities by systematically and selectively summarizing fundamental theories, providing guidance on problem-solving methods, and analyzing typical examples. The book highlights key content in engineering mechanics and reduces difficulties for beginners. It is divided into twenty chapters: Fundamentals of Statics, Plane Force Systems, Spatial Force Systems, Friction, Motion of a Point, Basic Motion of Rigid Bodies, Composite Motion of a Point, Plane Motion of Rigid Bodies, Fundamentals of Dynamics, D'Alembert's Principle, Theorem of Kinetic Energy, Axial Tension and Compression, Shear and Bearing, Torsion, Bending Internal Forces, Strength and Stiffness Calculation of Beam Bending, Stress State and Strength Theory, Strength Calculation of Combined Deformation, Dynamic Load, and Stability of Columns. Each chapter includes key points, problem-solving guides, typical examples, solutions to exercises, self-assessment exercises, and answers to self-assessment exercises. This book is a teaching aid for theoretical mechanics and material mechanics or engineering mechanics courses in universities, colleges, vocational colleges, and polytechnic universities, as well as for mechanical and related disciplines. It is suitable for students or self-learners taking various corresponding courses, helping them gain a deeper understanding of engineering mechanics.
