Intermediate dynamics for engineers [2nd ed.] : Newton-Euler and Lagrangian mechanics
By: O'Reilly, Oliver M.
Publisher: Cambridge Cambridge University Press 2020Edition: 2nd ed.Description: xvii, 525p.ISBN: 9781108494212.Subject(s): Dynamics | Mechanics, AnalyticDDC classification: 620.104 | Or3i2 Summary: Suitable for both senior-level and first-year graduate courses, this fully revised edition provides a unique and systematic treatment of engineering dynamics that covers Newton–Euler and Lagrangian approaches. New to this edition are: two completely revised chapters on the constraints on, and potential energies for, rigid bodies, and the dynamics of systems of particles and rigid bodies; clearer discussion on coordinate singularities and their relation to mass matrices and configuration manifolds; additional discussion of contravariant basis vectors and dual Euler basis vectors, as well as related works in robotics; improved coverage of navigation equations; inclusion of a 350-page solutions manual for instructors, available online; a fully updated reference list. Numerous structured examples, discussion of various applications, and exercises covering a wide range of topics are included throughout, and source code for exercises, and simulations of systems are available online.Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
