Statics and Dynamics with Background Mathematics
This book uniquely covers both statics and dynamics, together with a section on back-
ground mathematics, providing the student with everything needed plete typical
first year undergraduate courses in these areas. Students often find statics and dynamics
difficult subjects, since the skills needed to visualize problems and handle the mathe-
matics can be tricky to master. Roberts’ friendly approach makes life easier for both
student and tutor, tackling concepts from first principles with many examples, exercises
and helpful diagrams. The inclusion of a revision section on introductory mathematics
is a huge bonus, allowing students to catch up on the prerequisite mathematics needed
to work through both courses.
Dr Adrian Roberts was for 25 years a full Professor in the Faculty of Engineering at
Queen’s University, Belfast, including three years as Dean of the Faculty. He is now
retired.
