Features: This book is one of the most popular engineering mechanics series textbooks in the United States. It is comprehensive in content, simple and intuitive in presentation, and closely related to real-life phenomena. The fundamental principles of dynamics in this book are arranged in an easy-to-hard sequence, primarily covering particle dynamics, rigid-body plane dynamics, and rigid-body three-dimensional dynamics. The first two parts discuss the dynamics of particles and rigid bodies, force and acceleration, work and energy, impulse and momentum, while the latter part covers rigid-body three-dimensional kinematics, dynamics, and vibration. This book has two notable features: first, it provides numerous illustrations to explain the physical principles and their applications to be taught; second, it completely uses the SI unit system, which is consistent with the units typically used in domestic textbooks. The content of this book is innovative, with rich examples, closely linked to engineering practice, and is suitable as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in civil engineering, bridge engineering, mechanical engineering, and other related fields. It can also be used as a reference for engineering professionals.
