Download or read book Theoretical Mechanics of Particles and Continua written by Alexander L. Fetter and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2003-12-16 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-part text fills what has often been a void in the first-year graduate physics curriculum. Through its examination of particles and continua, it supplies a lucid and self-contained account of classical mechanics — which in turn provides a natural framework for introducing many of the advanced mathematical concepts in physics. The text opens with Newton's laws of motion and systematically develops the dynamics of classical particles, with chapters on basic principles, rotating coordinate systems, lagrangian formalism, small oscillations, dynamics of rigid bodies, and hamiltonian formalism, including a brief discussion of the transition to quantum mechanics. This part of the book also considers examples of the limiting behavior of many particles, facilitating the eventual transition to a continuous medium. The second part deals with classical continua, including chapters on string membranes, sound waves, surface waves on nonviscous fluids, heat conduction, viscous fluids, and elastic media. Each of these self-contained chapters provides the relevant physical background and develops the appropriate mathematical techniques, and problems of varying difficulty appear throughout the text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theoretical Mechanics: An Elementary Text-Book In a first course in Theoretical Mechanics the primary object to be gained by the student is a thorough grasp of fundamental princi ples. In most cases it is impossible to go beyond this object in the time available for the course. In the preparation of this text-book, the aim has been to present the fundamental principles in as clear and simple a manner as possible, and to enforce them by a sufficient number of illustrative examples; The examples are for the most part simple applications of the theory presented in the text, many numerical exercises being included. The solution of exercises in volving numerical data forms a part of the work of the student of which the importance should be emphasized. In the desire to cover as much ground as - possible, such work is too apt to be neglected. The mathematical training required for using the book is that usually implied by an elementary knowledge of Differential and Inte gral Calculus. The most essential portions of Part I (statics) may, however, be read without such knowledge. As regards arrangement, the aim has been to observe the order of difficulty of the different topics treated, so far as this was possible without doing violence to the logical relations. This is one reason for placing Statics first, instead of treating it in its strictly logical position as a special case of Kinetics. Part II may, however, be read before Part I, if any teacher should prefer this order. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Exploring Classical Mechanics written by Full Professor and Chair of Theoretical Physics G L Kotkin and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-08 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of a popular textbook offers an original collection of problems in analytical mechanics. Analytical mechanics is the first chapter in the study and understanding of theoretical physics. Its methods and ideas are crucially important, as they form the basis of all other branches of theoretical physics, including quantum mechanics, statistical physics, and field theory. Such concepts as the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms, normal oscillations, adiabatic invariants, Liouville theorem, and canonical transformations lay the foundation, without which any further in-depth study of theoretical physics is impossible. Wherever possible, the authors draw analogies and comparisons with similar processes in electrodynamics, quantum mechanics, or statistical mechanics while presenting the solutions to the problems. The book is based on the authors' many years of experience delivering lectures and seminars at the Department of Physics at Novosibirsk State University -- totalling an impressive 110+ years of combined teaching experience. Most of the problems are original, and will be useful not only for those studying mechanics, but also for those who teach it. The content of the book corresponds to and roughly follows the mechanics course in the well-known textbooks by Landau and Lifshitz, Goldstein, or ter Haar. The Collection... starts with the Newtonian equations, motion in a central field, and scattering. Then the text proceeds to the established, traditional sections of analytical mechanics as part of the course on theoretical physics: the Lagrangian equations, the Noether theorem, linear and nonlinear oscillations, Hamilton formalism, and motion of a solid body. As a rule, the solution of a problem is not complete by just obtaining the required formulae. It's necessary to analyse the result. This can be an interesting process of discovery for the student and is by no means a "mechanical'' part of the solution. It is also very useful to investigate what happens if the conditions of the problem are varied. With this in mind, the authors offer suggestions of further problems at the end of several solutions. First published in 1969 in Russian, this text has become widely used in classrooms around the world. It has been translated into several languages, and has seen multiple editions in various languages.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Elementary Text-Book of Theoretical Mechanics Pressures in fluids give rise to special considerations, which are grouped under a subdivision of statics called Hydrostatics. In the study of statics, geometric and graphical methods are applied so widely, as in computations pertaining to roof trusses, bridges, etc., that it has been found convenient to give this mode Of treating the subject a special name, Graphical Statics. III. Kinetics is that branch Of mechanics which discusses the forces acting upon bodies when motion is the result. It con siders why the body moves, and the relation between the motion produced and the force or forces involved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theory and Practice of Mechanics A course in theoretical mechanics often lacks the strength and vitality resulting from practical applications, whereas a course in applied mechanics is likely to be so technical and limited in its range as to obscure the meaning and s00pe of the fundamental principles involved. By properly combining theory and practice the efficiency of instruction is greatly increased, and mechanics also becomes a powerful instrument for coordinating mathematics and physics with technology. In this text the aim is to present the fundamental principles of mechanics in such a way as to emphasize their actual significance and relationship, and at the same time make them a matter of intelligent interest to the average student of junior grade in col leges and universities, and in technical and engineering schools. In each article the explanation is given a body by direct applica tion to some practical problem within the range of the student's experience or understanding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Elementary Treatise on Theoretical Mechanics The primary aim of the present book is to supply for students beginning the study of Theoretical Mechanics a course of such a nature as shall emphasize the fundamental physical principles of the subject. Different students will of course approach the study of mechanics with different interests, different aims, and different amounts of mathematical equipment, so that it may not be possible to produce a single book which shall exactly fit the requirements of every class of student. But I believe that all students of mechanics, no matter what their aims and intentions may be, will be in the same position in one respect, namely that they will best begin the study of the subject by trying to acquire a firm grasp of the physical principles, leaving aside at first all mathematical developments and all practical applications, except in so far as these contribute to the elucidation of the fundamental physical principles. I am aware that this belief is not held by all teachers of mechanics, some of whom regard the laws of mechanics simply as working rules to be acquired as rapidly as possible for their utilitarian value, while others appear to regard them in the same light as the rules of a game, the game consisting in the solution of mathematical puzzles, most of which have no conceivable reference to the facts of nature. I find it hard to believe that there can be any considerable class of students for whom either of these points of view is the best. As regards the former, I feel that a student who cannot get, or does not wish to get, a clear understanding of mechanical principles would be well advised not to enter a profession in which his work will consist in the handling of mechanical problems; and as regards the latter, that a student who wishes merely to obtain material for puzzle solving would do better to turn his attention to chess or double acrostics.

Download or read book Theoretical Mechanics written by W. Woolsey Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theoretical Mechanics: An Elementary Treatise In preparing the present work, which was designed to include in a single volume of moderate compass the elementary portions of Theoretical Mechanics, no formal division of the subject into Kinematics, Statics and Kinetics has been made. The topics often included under the first head it was thought best to introduce separately, each at the point where it is required for immediate application to the treatment of the motions produced by forces. For example, the expressions for radial and transverse accelerations are not introduced until required in the discussion of Central Forces. The subject of Statics is, to be sure, to a large extent separable from the idea of motion. But, on the one hand, as has been recognized in all recent treatises, the fundamental notions of force are best presented, and the Parallelogram of Forces is best established, on the basis of the Laws of Motion. This requires what may be called a dynamical introduction to Statics. On the other hand, the subject cannot be completed without the Method of Virtual Velocities, an application of the Principle of Work. This principle, which is dynamical as involving forces acting through spaces, advantageously precedes the study of kinetics into which time enters explicitly, and prepares the student for the notion of Kinetic Energy, or work embodied in motion.
