Description

Fully revised and updated, the new edition of Engineering Dynamics provides a comprehensive, self-contained and accessible treatment of classical dynamics. All chapters have been reworked to enhance student understanding, and new features include a stronger emphasis on computational methods, including rich examples using both Matlab and Python; new capstone computational examples extend student understanding, including modelling the flight of a rocket and the unsteady rolling of a disk. The coverage of Lagrange's equations is improved, spanning simple systems and systems…

Key features

  • Each chapter follows a logical progression from simple principles to more complicated scenarios, and closes with a capstone example that synthesizes key concepts
  • Recognising student difficulty in identifying strategies for solving problems, this textbook presents a clear, systematic method for solving dynamics problems
  • Computational methods in both Matlab and Python are used to model systems with rich dynamical behaviour, giving students and instructors the freedom choose their preferred language
