Statics and Mechanics of Materials: An Integrated Approach
* Use of Free-Body Diagrams. Authors, Riley, Sturges and Morris, feel that a proper free-body diagram is very important in all mechanics courses. Whenever an equation of equilibrium is written, a complete, proper free-body diagram accompanies it.\ * Problem Solving Procedures. Statics and Mechanics of Materials: An Integrated Approach provides students with an effective methodology for problem decomposition and solution, the ability to present results in a clear, and logical manner is...

In this textbook, each chapter explains the forces that act on a static structure, immediately followed by the mechanics of how the material deforms or reacts. The book covers concurrent force systems, equilibrium, axial loading, torsional loading, flexural loading, combined static loading, and columns. The second edition adds sections on the design of ductile and brittle materials, and eccentrically loaded columns. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
