Known for its accuracy, clarity, and dependability, Meriam, Kraige, and Bolton's Engineering Mechanics: Dynamics, 9th Edition has provided a solid foundation of mechanics principles for more than 60 years. This text continues to help students develop their problem-solving skills with an extensive variety of engaging problems related to engineering design. In addition to new homework problems, the text includes a number of helpful sample problems. To help students build necessary visualization and problem-solving skills, the text strongly emphasizes drawing free-body diagrams, one of the most important skills needed to solve mechanics problems.

Learn MATLAB to help you understand mechanics MATLAB is a powerful tool for mathematical modeling, and is becoming essential to many engineering fields. Solving Statics Problems in MATLAB is designed to both introduce students to MATLAB, and provide them with a useful tool for understanding static mechanics. The book begins with MATLAB basics, including scripts, functions, graphics, calculations, and equations, then moves into physics with targeted guidance on solving force systems, equilibriums, structures, friction, and more. The problems presented are taken from Engineering Mechanics Statics, 6th Edition, but the clear guidance and comprehensive instruction can be applied to any course.

An introduction to MATLAB for engineering students, complete with practice problems Written as a complement to Engineering Mechanics Dynamics, this book provides students with an introduction to MATLAB as well as example problems that correspond to the aforementioned text. The book covers numerical calculations, defining functions, graphics, symbolic calculations, differentiation and integration, and solving equations with MATLAB and then presents problems in seven subsequent chapters. These cover kinematics of particles, kinetics of particles, kinetics of systems of particles; plane kinematics of rigid bodies; plane kinetics of rigid bodies, three-dimensional dynamics of rigid bodies, and vibration and response time.
