This book was released on 2013-05-23 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In addition to being among the twentieth century’s major scientific figures, Sir James Jeans (1877–1946) was also one of the greatest modern science expositors. His classic introduction to mechanics endures as a clear and concise presentation of first principles. Although brief, it encompasses a remarkably wide selection of topics. Its subjects include rest and motion, force and the laws of motion, forces acting on a single particle, statics of systems of particles, statics of rigid bodies, center of gravity, work, motion of a particle under constant forces, motion of systems of particles, motion of a particle under a variable force, motion of rigid bodies, and generalized coordinates. Within each chapter, the author carefully explains the most elementary concepts (such as velocity, acceleration, Newton’s laws, friction, moments, and kinetic energy), and he illustrates them with examples. Ideal for beginning physics students or for more advanced readers in need of refreshment, the text emphasizes the fundamental physical principles rather than mathematics or applications. So clearly written that it can be read and understood outside the classroom, it features hundreds of fully worked illustrative examples and test exercises.

Download or read book A Treatise on Mechanics Classic Reprint written by Henry Kater and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Mechanics Let us next suppose the force to be applied not in the direction of the axis itself, but parallel to it. Let A B, fig. 7 Q, be the axis, and let C D be the direction of the force applied. The pivots being supposed to be at A and B, draw A G and B F perpendicular to A B. The force C D will be equivalent to three forces, one acting from B towards A, equal in quantity to the force C D. This force will evidently produce a corresponding pressure on the pivot A'. The other two forces will act in the di rections A G and B F, and will have respectively to the force C D the same proportion as A E has to A B. Such will be the mechanical effect of a force CD parallel to the axis. And as these effects are all directed on the pivots, no motion can ensue. If the body revolve on a cylindrical rod, the forces A G and B F would produce a strain upon the axis, while the third force1 in the direction B A would have a tendency to make the body slide along it.

Download or read book Contact Mechanics written by K. L. Johnson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1987-08-28 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This treatise is concerned with the stresses and deformation of solid bodies in contact with each other, along curved surfaces which touch initially at a point or along a line. Examples are a railway wheel and rail, or a pair of gear wheel teeth. Professor Johnson first reviews the development of the theory of contact stresses since the problem was originally addressed by H. Hertz in 1882. Next he discusses the influence of friction and the topographical roughness of surfaces, and this is incorporated into the theory of contact mechanics. An important feature is the treatment of bodies which deform plastically or viscoelastically. In addition to stationary contact, an appreciable section of the book is concerned with bodies which are in sliding or rolling contact, or which collide.
