Features: This book is a planned teaching material for universities in the 21st century. Engineering Mechanics, which includes Statics and Mechanics of Materials, is an important technical foundation course for engineering majors. The book is divided into 16 chapters. The Statics section covers basic concepts of statics, free-body diagrams, concurrent force systems in a plane, moment, coplanar couples, general force systems in a plane, friction, and spatial force systems. The Mechanics of Materials section includes axial tension and compression, torsion, bending internal forces, bending stress, bending deformation, statically indeterminate beams, stress state and strength theory, combined deformation, and column stability. Additionally, it includes appendices such as the geometric properties of cross-sections, formulas for beam deflection and rotation, steel section tables, and a bilingual (Chinese-English) glossary of engineering mechanics terms. The content of the book is well-chosen, emphasizing fundamental principles and methods, with concise language and abundant illustrations. This book is suitable for various engineering majors in general universities and can be selected based on the planned course hours.
