Fundamentals of Engineering Mechanics

Fundamentals of Engineering Mechanics explain the fundamental concepts and principles underlying the subject. It illustrates the application of numerical methods to solve engineering problems with mathematical models and introduces students to the use of computer applications to solve problems. A continuous step-by-step build up of the subject makes the book very student-friendly. All topics and sequentially coherent subtopics are carefully organized and explained distinctly each chapter. An abundance of solved examples is provided to illustrate all phases of the topic under consideration. All chapters include several spreadsheet problems for modelling of physical phenomena, which enable the students to obtain graphical representations of physical quantities and perform numerical analysis of problems without recourse to a high-level computer language. The Third Edition includes past question papers and their solutions.
