Features: The book is characterized by comprehensive content, a complete system, fluent narration, appropriate depth, rigorous theory, practical application, gradual progression, clear logic, typical examples, easy generalization, well-chosen exercises with answers, rational selection of materials, ease of teaching, additional special topics, elevated starting point, and accompanied by a supplementary textbook titled "Solving Methods and Techniques for Theoretical Mechanics." 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 colleges, 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 equipped with thinking questions, exercises, and answers. This book can serve as a textbook for "Theoretical Mechanics" courses in mechanical, aerospace, aviation, navigation, civil engineering, electromechanical, and power-related disciplines in higher industrial colleges, as well as a reference for adult education materials in related fields and for engineering professionals.
