DESCRIPTION:
Felix said Not a fan. Literally decades of undergrad engineers-to-be have studied vector mechanics from the various editions of this book. Why continues to baffle me. Besides being severely overpriced for a sophomore-level book, the authors seemly ignore the math notation formats taught in every modern university calculus and linear/matrix algebra class.If your class requires the textbook, you don't have much choice. Hold your nose any buy it. OTOH, if you're looking for a personal enrichment book on the subjects, continue looking unless you really dig tons o. Amazon Customer said Great deal, but heavy. The book description is misleading, don't expect online activation code.. This is a heavy "Great deal, but heavy. The book description is misleading, don't expect online activation code." according to Amazon Customer. This is a heavy 2-1/8" thick book, but it will save you money if you have to take both statics and dynamics! Does not include access to McGraw Hill online material (activation code). I already have an account with MH Connect from other books I've owned, but it seems I can't get access to the engineering content without some kind of instructor invite first, then probably an activation code. So unless your instructor specified you will be using online content, don't sweat it, just get the book. It's pretty decent from what I've seen so far. -1/8" thick book, but it will save you money if you have to take both statics and dynamics!

Exactly what the professor ordered!
He is a licensed professional engineer in Connecticut and Pennsylvania.Born in France and educated in France and Switzerland, Ferd held an M.S. He has been very active in the American Society of Engineering Education, serving on its Board from 2008-2010. Teetor Educational Award in 1992, the Dean’s Outstanding Scholar Award at Rose-Hulman in 2000, and the Board of Trustees Outstanding Scholar Award at Rose-Hulman in 2001.. David is currently a member of the American Railway Engineering & Maintenance-of-way Association Committee 15 (Steel Structures), and the American Society of Civil Engineers Committee on Blast, Shock, and Vibratory Effects. degree in the field of structural engineering from The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). In addition, he conducted research in the area of noise and vibration transmission reduction in submarines. Brian has taught in the Mechanical Engineering Department at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo since 2006. H
Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, how they need it, so that class time is more effective. This edition has undergone a complete rewrite to modernize and streamline the language through the text. Problems are randomized to prevent sharing of answers an may also have a "multi-step solution" which helps move the students' learning along if they experience difficulty.. This edition of Vector Mechanics for Engineers will help instructors achieve these goals. A strong conceptual understanding of these basic mechanics principles is essential for successfully solving mechanics problems. Over 650 of the homework problems in the text are new or revised.

With a team of five, Brian developed the Dynamics Concept Inventory to help assess student conceptual understanding. He was employed by General Dynamics Corporation Electric Boat Division for five years, where he provided submarine construction support and conducted engineering design and analysis associated with pressure hull and other structures. degree in the field of structural engineering from The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). degree in civil engineering from the
